Chapter 61: Arrival at the Scarlet Cloud Immortal Palace



Chapter 61: Arrival at the Scarlet Cloud Immortal Palace

From the cavern emerged two terrifying corpse puppets exuding the aura of annihilation. With the strength of these two corpse puppets, even sweeping through all the participants in this secret realm posed no challenge. However, sitting atop the backs of these two corpse puppets were none other than Leng Yanran and Li Shenruo.

Following closely behind was the coffin man, traversing the air after the two women. They headed toward the true direction of the Scarlet Cloud Immortal Palace. As for the other corpse puppets, the coffin man had dispatched them to scatter and collect heavenly and earthly treasures.

"More formidable than the defense grand formation of my Holy Mountain…"

Li Shenruo sat on the back of the annihilation aura corpse puppet, her entire being still not fully recovered from the shock. She kept murmuring the words the coffin man had spoken earlier.

She couldn't fathom how the portable array disc Leng Yanran had taken out could be even stronger than the defense grand formation of her Holy Mountain. Furthermore, Leng Yanran possessed ten array discs, each containing an Innate middle-quality formation.

If given the opportunity, she could probably destroy the Holy Mountain with ease. Unless they managed to subdue her before she could activate the array disc's power, even the Holy Mountain behind her would be utterly defenseless!

Yet, what shocked Li Shenruo the most were Leng Yanran's words. These terrifying array discs were all casually crafted by her master... As if they were nothing special at all?

Just what realm of existence was her senior? Could it really be that he was an immortal? Otherwise, she found it hard to believe that portable array discs could reach such an unheard-of level of power.

For a moment, Li Shenruo even questioned whether her halt in immediate consent to becoming the senior's disciple was a mistake. Initially, she believed that Chen Daoxuan, the senior, was above the Boundless Realm, likely at the Divinity Separation Realm, just like several elders in the Holy Mountain. But now, it seemed she had been completely wrong!

Perhaps that senior's strength far surpassed the Divinity Separation Realm, making him stronger than even the elders of the Holy Mountain!

Li Shenruo was lost in her thoughts all the way, while Leng Yanran beside her was cultivating with closed eyes. In order to become a force capable of assisting her master as soon as possible, she was determined not to waste even a single moment.

With two annihilation aura corpse puppets and the coffin man at the Boundless Realm accompanying them, their journey was naturally smooth and trouble-free.

At the square in front of the main hall of the Scarlet Cloud Immortal Palace, thousands of talents from the Northern Region had gathered. Even the Eastern Region genius, Wang Yan, was among them. He was the first to arrive at the square of the Immortal Palace.

"Strange, that demon clan woman and the saintess Li Shenruo entered the secret realm before me. Why haven't I seen them?"

Wang Yan searched the crowd several times, but he couldn't find the two figures. He couldn't help but feel curious.

Meanwhile, the assessment for inheriting the Scarlet Cloud Immortal Palace's legacy was ongoing. The first trial was to break through the outermost barrier formation. Considering that the participants were all at the Profound Sky Realm, the formation set up by Chi Yunzi wasn't particularly powerful, just a Profound-grade top-quality formation.

However, for those at the Profound Sky Realm, it was already enough to deter ninety-nine percent of talents. After all, breaking a Profound-grade top-quality formation required the strength to unleash power exceeding the ninth level of the Unity Realm.

Another method was to find flaws in the inscription operation and enter the barrier through those flaws. Naturally, everyone chose to look for flaws.

To prevent anyone from cheating with external forces like spirit talismans imbued with divine abilities, Chi Yunzi had even set a rule within the formation. Even if someone forcefully broke the formation using such talismans, it wouldn't count.

Wang Yan could only lower his head and observe the trajectory of the formation's operation.

Suddenly, cries of astonishment erupted from the crowd, and many began shouting and fleeing. Startled from his focused state, Wang Yan's brow furrowed as he turned to look. However, what he saw made him want to run away just like everyone else. Two monsters emitting clear annihilation aura were swaggering toward the square.

"What the hell! What's happening? How can there be two Annihilation Realm monsters?"

Wang Yan's legs trembled. Although he didn't understand why these two monsters suddenly appeared, he didn't delay in making a run for it. As for the other Northern Region talents, when they saw the Annihilation Realm Monsters, they had already gone crazy trying to escape. Even the more timid ones were so scared that their legs were trembling uncontrollably, rendering them powerless to run.

"Wait, look, there seem to be two people on the monsters' backs!"

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed individual pointed at the backs of the two monsters and shouted. The crowd slightly stunned, turned to where the person was pointing, and sure enough, they saw two figures seated on the monsters' backs.

Monsters of the Annihilation Realm had to be native to the Scarlet Cloud Secret Realm. Could it be... part of the inheritance trial set by the Immortal?

However, the crowd also noticed a peculiar point. Although the two monsters were powerful, they didn't seem to have any intention of attacking them. They were simply making their way toward the center of the square.

Soon, as the monsters approached, everyone finally managed to get a clear view of the two figures on their backs.

"Fairy Leng!? And that one, is it the saintess from the Eastern Region? Hiss, both participating in the secret realm. Why are they allowed to bring Annihilation Realm Mounts into the secret realm!?"

"Are you an idiot? Annihilation Realm Monsters can't even enter the secret realm teleportation array. These two must be Annihilation Realm Monsters that naturally exist within the secret realm!"

"Hiss... which means they've tamed Annihilation Realm Monsters within the secret realm? That's even scarier!"

For a moment, everyone speculated secretly about how the two managed to tame Annihilation Realm Monsters. Combined with the audacious display of power by the two monsters, no one noticed the figure with dark green skin following behind.

Leng Yanran lightly leaped down from the monster's back, paying no attention to the astonishment of the people. She casually glanced at the assessment rules written at the center of the square and walked straight toward the formation that represented the trial.

Seeing her, Li Shenruo also quickly dismounted and followed. As for the two monsters, they obediently remained in place. Upon seeing this, the crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

"Two fairies… what's going on?"

Wang Yan approached them hastily, casting a sidelong glance at the two monsters. He carefully asked, his curiosity directed mainly at Li Shenruo, since he was met with Leng Yanran's cold attitude.

Leng Yanran frowned slightly. She held a certain aversion to males other than her master and didn't bother responding, walking toward the barrier.

Wang Yan could only force a smile to conceal his embarrassment and shifted his inquisitive gaze to Li Shenruo, hoping she could shed some light on the situation, being a fellow representative from the Eastern Region.
