With the revival of spiritual energy, I cultivated the Great Emperor's Technique on Blue Star.

Within the ancient battlefield's secret realm, a crimson sun hangs in the sky, its murderous aura surging endlessly.

Including Lin Yan, all the freshmen of Jiangcheng Martial Arts University have been dispersed to different areas, and the sounds of fighting can be heard all over the mountains and fields.

Those who have never stepped into the first rank of martial arts join forces to fight against the low-level remnant souls who can only attack by relying on their killing instincts, using their still somewhat rudimentary qi and blood techniques. They constantly hone their combat experience. The geniuses who have entered the ranks unanimously pair up with remnant souls of the same rank to fight. Each of them is agile and has exquisite moves, and their credits are steadily increasing.

A small group of people formed an array together, intending to jointly besiege the remnant souls of a higher realm, where risks and opportunities coexist.

Everyone here is fighting desperately to accumulate more credits in the limited time available. No one is slacking off or backing down. The entire battlefield is filled with the vibrant energy and vitality of young people.

Unbeknownst to anyone, in the void outside the barrier of the secret realm, boundless darkness had already quietly arrived, managing to bypass layers of monitoring equipment, the city's protective array, and even the perception of Li Cang, a supreme expert at the national level.

"Hehehe, I can't wait to start a massacre."

"I want to see rivers of blood."

This time, it wasn't just the Blood Sacrifice Cult; there were also two other human traitors who had taken root on Blue Star and sided with extraterrestrial races. Dozens of figures with obscure auras hid in the void, joining forces to activate a renowned artifact from ancient times—the Boundary-Breaking Cone.

The Boundary-Breaking Cone, as its name suggests, is a special artifact designed to break through boundary barriers and attack the enemy's territory. At this moment, it was used by them to tear open the barrier of the secret realm, allowing everyone to penetrate deep into the secret realm and besiege this group of new generation martial artists from the Great Xia Dynasty.

"It'll be soon, very soon."

The Boundary-Breaking Cone moved with unstoppable force, its engraved mystical patterns gleaming with a chilling light. It easily pierced through the thick barrier of the secret realm, woven from rules and order, causing a barely perceptible tremor throughout the entire ancient battlefield.

After all, this artifact was originally intended for a surprise attack on the enemy's "headquarters," so it was unlikely to cause much of a stir.

"Um?"

Just as the battlefield secret realm trembled, Lin Yan's mind suddenly stirred, his keen divine sense began to warn him, and his gaze suddenly became sharp as he abruptly raised his head and stared intently at a corner of the void.

"Lin Yan's behavior is strange; something might have happened!"

Outside the secret realm, Li Cang kept a close eye on the situation on the battlefield. Upon seeing this, he immediately sent a telepathic message to Wang Jianjun:

"Pass the word down secretly: keep the alert level up. It's all loose on the outside but tight on the inside. It's probably still those human scum causing trouble."

At the same time, the fourth-level martial artists present also received Li Cang's telepathic message. Their expressions did not change in the slightest, but in reality, they were extremely solemn and ready to make a move at any time.

"Everyone, cease fighting immediately and retreat behind me, quickly!"

Lin Yan's voice clearly reached everyone's ears. With a wave of his hand, countless dense, dark array patterns poured out like water, imprinting themselves on the sky and the ground, outlining a huge Devouring Heaven Treasure Bottle, which lay horizontally in the sky, emitting a terrifying aura that made people's hearts tremble.

the other side.

"Everyone enter the secret realm. There are no high-level martial artists guarding the ancient battlefield; it's just a bunch of inexperienced children. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to wipe out the new generation of geniuses of Great Xia in one fell swoop!"

The speaker was a fourth-tier peak martial artist from the Eternal Silence Pavilion, another major rival organization on par with the Blood Sacrifice Cult. Behind him was the Shadow Erosion Clan from beyond the realm. This clan was proficient in assassination and possessed an innate talent for controlling shadows, making them a natural-born killer clan.

The Boundary-Breaking Cone is the work of this race.

"Slaughtering these prodigies will inevitably create a gap in the new generation of Great Xia. After the deed is done, the Bone Luo Clan's leader promised to bestow upon us a blood essence baptism, allowing us to completely shed these frail bodies!"

The third force to speak was the Dao Lord of the Bone Path, who was backed by the Bone Luo Clan, one of the myriad races from beyond the realm.

"The blood sacrifice sect's deepest grudge will be repaid today by these youths of Great Xia!"

The Blood Sacrifice Cult's Grand Elder held a scarlet Blood Soul Banner, from which billowing black smoke emanated, exuding a fierce and hateful aura.

The three major forces, dozens of third-tier and more than ten fourth-tier experts, and even several peak fourth-tier powerhouses such as the Grand Elder of the Eternal Silence Pavilion, the Dao Master of the Bone-Dry Dao, and the Grand Elder of the Blood Sacrifice Sect gathered together, demonstrating their full strength.

They joined forces, frantically activating the Boundary-Breaking Cone, and fiercely thrust it towards the barrier of the secret realm.

Boo!

A subtle ripple emanated, and the Boundary-Breaking Cone glowed. The once stable, indestructible barrier of the secret realm shattered at a visible speed, forming a dense spiderweb of cracks.

click!

The cracks spread rapidly, and at one moment, a large section of the barrier collapsed, tearing open a passage large enough for everyone to pass through.

"Take action! Leave no survivors!"

In an instant, three eerie auras of extreme cold and piercing cold spread out, causing the fierce aura of countless battles on the ancient battlefield to dim considerably. A terrifying pressure that made people tremble with fear swept over them, as if the end of the world was approaching.

Accompanied by the roars of three peak fourth-tier experts, powerful figures broke through the barrier and arrived. The weakest of them all exuded the aura of the mid-third tier, causing the examinees below the third tier to tremble in fear.

The long-lurking enemies completed their three-way encirclement the moment they landed. Their original intention was to temporarily ignore the scattered examinees, crush the most densely populated area, and then take advantage of the opportunity to plunder the opportunities in the secret realm from the scattered examinees.

But to their utter surprise, what awaited them was a gathering of nearly three thousand examinees, a Great Dao Treasure Bottle spewing forth boundless, heaven-devouring power, and a fourth-order perfected (divine bridge) standing tall in the sky, overlooking all living beings!

"No, it's true that as your cultivation level increases, the enemies you face also become stronger. A fourth-tier cultivator can roam freely, while a third-tier cultivator is no match for a dog?"

Lin Yan sighed inwardly. Wasn't it said that since the revival of spiritual energy, there were very few third-tier martial artists, and fourth-tier ones were even rarer? But what are they now?

"However, it doesn't matter how many come, they're all just nourishment anyway."

With a thought, terrifying divine power surged forth, as if countless invisible hands were slapping down on the heads of these people. Caught off guard, the warriors of the three major forces instantly faced a catastrophic crisis.

"Oh no, we've fallen for their trap..."

The only person who persisted the longest was the Blood Sacrifice Cult's Grand Elder. He had undergone the baptism of the Blood Soul Clan, and his soul strength was much stronger than the other two of his peers. However, he only persisted for half a sentence longer before collapsing into sleep, just like the others.

Almost at the same time that the three major forces broke through the boundary and arrived, outside the secret realm, Li Cang on the high platform immediately stood up. Just as he was about to forcibly tear through space and rush into the secret realm to provide assistance, he was blocked by a national-level pressure that had also reached the peak of the fifth rank.

"Li Cang, stop!"
