Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 642 - 638: Hidden Clan Geniuses Enter the Secret Realm

However, Xiao Qingxue’s worries did not come to pass, even though there were a few small deviations along the way, the final result was still smooth.

Xia Feng condensed the Great Dao of Life and Death at a speed more than ten times faster than Xiao Qingxue, and this Great Dao of Life and Death, born under such suppression, seemed to be somewhat easier to control than Xiao Qingxue’s.

Unfortunately, even though Xia Feng’s Great Dao of Life and Death was several degrees stronger than Xiao Qingxue’s, because he comprehended too many Great Daos, his focus was scattered.

It was still somewhat difficult for him to break through to the Main God Realm, and ultimately, like Xiao Qingxue, he got stuck at the Ninth Grade True God Realm.

And looking at him, it seemed that he would have to wait until all the Great Daos condensed to the Ninth Grade True God Realm before he could attempt to break through.

Alternatively, if he received an exceptional inheritance, he could forcibly raise his Realm.

Otherwise, he could only hope that a Celestial Pill would be born soon, allowing him to use it to break through the Realm.

The group of women knew that Xia Feng and Xiao Qingxue had successively comprehended the Great Dao of Life and Death, and they were a bit excited, gaining a bit more confidence in confronting the enemies in the entire Secret Realm.

After consolidating their Realm slightly, they came out of the Dream Realm Pearl, ready to find a way to deal with the situation in the Secret Realm.

But when they emerged from the Dream Realm Pearl, they were somewhat stunned.

Unlike their imagination of the entire Secret Realm being invaded by miasma, when they emerged, there didn’t seem to be much miasma, Death Qi, or Demonic Qi in the surrounding air.

Instead, the fragrance of pills once again permeated this Secret Realm, and occasionally a few Pill Beasts ran past them without even looking at them, dashing directly into the miasma to self-destruct.

The self-destruction of the Pill Beasts thinned out the miasma a bit; it seemed this was some method left by the Celestial Pill Sect back in the day, to prevent the entire Secret Realm from falling into the hands of the Demon and Nether Races, these Pill Beasts resisted the strange invasion in this way.

Xia Feng was unsure whether he was relieved or more tense, he released his Divine Sense to probe the surrounding situation and found that not far away, a Nameless Pill Valley seemed to be exuding a soaring Pill Qi, looking quite peculiar.

He shared his perception with the group of women and then said in a somewhat uncertain tone: "This situation is a bit similar to the trap in the previous Celestial Pill Valley, but it seems to differ slightly."

To put it simply, the situation in this Nameless Pill Valley carries some risk, and he’s not sure if the Celestial Pill is emerging or if it’s another demon trap.

Sun Yazhu pondered deeply for a moment and then softly spoke: "Whether it’s a trap or not, we must go over and take a look at the specific situation."

"If it really is a trap, then just like the previous Celestial Pill Valley, we’ll solve it."

Upon hearing her suggestion, Xia Feng’s expression became even more subtle: "In my perception, quite a few prodigies are flying in that direction."

The women all expressed surprise: "Hmm? After so much trouble, there are still prodigies alive?"

"The Infinite Divine Son has already taken down more than half of these prodigies, and quite a few perished in Celestial Pill Valley; the miasma outside must have claimed many lives too, right?"

"I thought there were already very few surviving prodigies in Celestial Pill Valley now."

Xia Feng coughed lightly, then added: "These prodigies are a bit strange, I haven’t seen them before."

Xia Feng was fairly confident in his memory, he was familiar with most of the top-ranked prodigies participating in the trials outside.

But he had no impression of this batch of gathered prodigies, and not only did he have no impression, but these prodigies’ cultivation levels were at least one whole Realm higher than the previous batch.

It seemed the outside world detected something unexpected happening in the Celestial Pill Secret Realm and sent in another batch of even more formidable prodigies to check on what actually occurred.

Xia Feng even had a hint of another suspicion, he vaguely spotted a familiar person he had almost forgotten among these prodigies - Tang Yunqi.

This young master of the Hidden Clan had also entered the Secret Realm with this batch of prodigies, making Xia Feng suspect that this entire group of prodigies might all come from Hidden Clans.

But such a guess could not be confirmed without investigating, so Xia Feng simply stopped conjecturing and led the group of women directly towards the Nameless Pill Valley.

The closer they got to the Nameless Pill Valley, the more evident the soaring Pill Qi became, and the faint Pill Fragrance grew increasingly rich.

The miasma, originally dispersing everywhere, couldn’t even approach within ten miles of the Nameless Pill Valley, being forced to retreat by the Pill Fragrance.

Xia Feng and the women exchanged glances at this anomaly, seeing each other’s increased excitement, as this phenomenon didn’t seem like the work of demons, but rather, as if the Celestial Pill was indeed emerging.

With this thought, everyone’s expressions grew even more excited, and their flying speed increased notably.

When they arrived at the Nameless Pill Valley, quite a few prodigies had already gathered there, having conducted more than a few disputes over the ownership of the Celestial Pill which had yet to emerge.

As Xia Feng and the others entered the valley, these people didn’t even spare them a glance.

Only Tang Yunqi, a bit curious, glanced at Xia Feng, then, as if sharing a tacit understanding, winked at him before turning serious and standing at the forefront with the Tang Family people, opposing prodigies from other families.

Xia Feng found a lonely corner and carefully observed the people before him.

Although Tang Yunqi’s attitude towards him was relatively gentle, Xiang Feng didn’t dare trust him completely, as the incident of the demon’s betrayal still lingered vividly in his mind. Xia Feng was determined to obtain the Celestial Pill.

As long as their objectives were the same, conflicts would inevitably arise in the end.

Tang Yunqi was unaware of Xia Feng’s thoughts; he stood at the forefront with a somewhat youthful face, arguing with the opposing Zhao Family prodigy Zhao Ziqi.

"We don’t know what’s happening here; rashly taking action on the Celestial Pill might attract some hidden coveters."

"Why not first join forces to figure out what’s going on in the Secret Realm, and then sit down to allocate the Celestial Pill’s ownership?"

The opposite Zhao Ziqi sneered, her beautiful eyes full of mockery: "Does knowing what happened serve any purpose?"

"Just looking at the miasma pervading the Secret Realm, even a fool can guess it’s the work of the Demon and Nether Races. Even if we find them, with our abilities, we can’t resolve what’s happened, so why overthink it?"
