Chapter 484: Chapter 490: Fierce Battle
Chapter 484 -490: Fierce Battle
“Hurry, hurry, the Secret Realm is about to close! If we don’t leave now, we’ll have to wait a hundred years to escape!”
In the last few days before the closure of the Secret Realm, whether it was Cultivators or the Devil Race, all were desperately running towards the exit.
And the quickest to act were naturally the Devil Beasts guarding the vicinity of the Secret Realm.
However, the continuous onslaught of Devil Beasts caused the expressions of several Nascent Soul True Lords to turn extremely grim, nearly unable to suppress their furious rage.
“In these final moments, let me present you all with a parting gift!” Hu Linghuan said, a cruel smile appearing on his lips as he looked at the last group of Cultivators within the Secret Realm.
The next instant, he disappeared without a trace.
When he reappeared, he was followed by more than a dozen third-tier Devil Beasts, along with a massive number of lower-realm Devil Beasts.
And their destination was precisely where the group of Cultivators were hidden.
“We’ve been found by those damned beasts!” a Cultivator shouted in terror.
Several Cultivators were in a state of panic, utterly clueless about what to do now.
“Now we can only risk everything in a fight! Whether we live or die depends on this moment!”
They had no choice; if they stayed, there would be no way out. They had no other options.

Sadly, when facing the siege of the Devil Beasts, and with the ‘Devils’ outnumbering them, the Cultivators were no match and, after a struggle, died reluctantly.
And their deaths were the spark that ignited the rage of Yun Lei and several other Nascent Soul True Lords!
“Have you all gone too far! Must you exterminate us completely?” one of the True Lords roared furiously.
“Life and death are predetermined, and wealth is in the hands of heaven, isn’t this what your human race says? Besides, where did we go too far? There are still plenty of Cultivators living well, aren’t there? It’s just bad luck for them, who else can they blame?”
The Devil Race, naturally rejoicing at the human race’s misfortune and speaking with malicious intent, said, “Furthermore, their deaths aren’t necessarily related to us. After all, everyone knows that the human race is the most prone to infighting, isn’t it?”
“You feather-brained beast! You’re asking for death!” A hot-tempered True Lord was so furious he took direct action!
Although the fourth-tier Great Devils reacted quickly, many Devil Beasts still lost their lives.
The Devil Race, having deep-seated hatred with the human race, could no longer contain themselves when they saw this and attacked without hesitation, with a variety of lethal moves hitting all at once.
“Since you wish for death, I shall oblige!”
Logically, Shen Leishan and Profound Ice Sect, which had already suffered heavy casualties, should not be engaging in a major battle with the Devil Race at this time. They should at least gather more Cultivators to either gain an advantage or at least to equalize their forces.
But now, they were backed into a corner!
If they did not respond to the challenge, it would be a massive blow to their morale and confidence!
On the Nascent Soul battlefield, both sides were evenly matched, but in the Golden Core and even lower levels of battle, the Cultivators were at a complete disadvantage.
Despite this, the battle was not something that would end in a short time, but if it continued like this, defeat for the Cultivators was set to become inevitable!
And unbeknownst to them, the gateway of the Secret Realm was inching closed until, at last, it disintegrated into a sky full of Spirit Light and vanished completely.
——
In the Secret Realm!
At the moment the portal to the Secret Realm closed, Hu Linghuan suddenly appeared from a spatial rift, gazing at the empty space ahead, he excitedly exclaimed, “From now on, this Secret Realm belongs to me!”
Why did it wait until after the portal to the Secret Realm opened to summon the Devil Beasts to take action? In fact, it hoped that some cultivators would escape, thereby igniting conflict between cultivators and the Devil Race, or even triggering a great war!
Because only by doing so could the Devil Race avoid noticing Hu Linghuan, allowing it enough time to annex the Secret Realm!
That’s right! To annex!
Everyone knows that the Spirit Void Fox is a rare space-related Spirit Beast, but few people know that a Spirit Void Fox is born with a small personal space!
And this space is the foundation of the Spirit Void Fox, akin to the exceedingly important Dantian for cultivators.
To grow, the Spirit Void Fox needed to find ways to expand its space, but the Spiritual Objects capable of expanding space are extremely rare; after all, not every personal space is like Li Zhirui’s, which expands on its own as one’s cultivation level increases.
Another method for expanding space is to annex other spaces!
Indeed, this method is much more difficult, but happens that there exists a Secret Realm in the Great Void Province, and it is a realm coveted by various powers!
And among the only two fourth-tiered Great Devils in the Taixu Devil Race, there is one fourth-tiered Spirit Void Fox that saw this opportunity.
It planned to take advantage of the opening of the Secret Realm to have its offspring, Hu Linghuan, annex the Secret Realm, thereby smoothly breaking through to the fourth tier.
Originally, the Taixu Devil Race just intended to scavenge all the Spiritual Objects and did not insist on slaying cultivators; only later did they change their mind, needing to provoke the conflict between cultivators and the Devil Race, hence the mass slaughter of cultivators.
And why did Hu Linghuan scheme against the Devil Race? The reason is quite simple—the Secret Realm!
A third-tier Secret Realm is extremely precious, capable of bringing vast gains to other Devil Beasts, but if it were to be annexed by Hu Linghuan, then in the future, they would all be left with nothing.
Under such circumstances, how could those Devil Beasts possibly agree?
Even with the support of a fourth-tier Great Devil, it would not be possible to advance this matter!
Therefore, the only option was to act stealthily, turning raw rice into cooked rice, and allowing Hu Linghuan to break through to the fourth tier; by then, even if the other Devil Beasts were dissatisfied, they couldn’t affect the overall situation anymore.
And now, the situation was developing just as Hu Linghuan had planned, with the human race and the Devil Race mired in war, with no one paying attention to the Secret Realm anymore.
“Li Zhixuan! I will make you pay double for the humiliation you have given me!” Hu Linghuan’s visage suddenly contorted fiercely as he spoke with a chilling tone.
From birth till now, having a fourth-tier Great Devil as an elder, its life had always been smooth sailing, never experiencing such great humiliation!
Thus, Hu Linghuan was extremely mindful of this matter, incessantly plotting to eliminate every being who knew of this incident!
Two flowers bloom, each showing off a branch.
On the Spirit Boat where Li Zhirui and his companions were.
“Tell me, why did you choose to stay in the Secret Realm alone?” Li Zhirui asked, “Did you accidentally discover something, is that it?”
“Jiu guessed correctly. Upon entering the Secret Realm, I accidentally found a valley. Inside, apart from possessing numerous Spiritual Objects, there were also countless Devil Beasts,” Li Zhixuan confessed without concealing her admiration for Li Zhirui.
Considering it was a perilously dangerous situation—if accidentally discovered by the Devil Beasts, there likely wouldn’t be a Li Zhirui today!
Yet when spoken by Li Zhixuan, it seemed incredibly light and unworthy of mention.
