“It should be right below here,” Li Nian’er arrives at the edge of a cliff.
The bottom of the cliff was unplumbed; it gave off a bone-chilling terror that emanated its pitch-blackness to the human eye.
“To be precise, it’s right underneath this position.” Jiang Li stood over ten meters away from Li Nian’er.
Under his Divine Sense, the depths of the cliff were clear as day.
“I’ll fly you down…”
Jiang Li turned to speak to Red Dust Immortal, but before he could finish, she took a stance as if to dive headfirst off the cliff and jumped down without hesitation.
“Is Big Sister Red …”
“She’s just a bit rash, her power is very strong, no need to worry about her.”
Of course nothing would happen to Red Dust Immortal, even without using her immortal power, she was a genuine Immortal with the body of an Immortal.
There’s no way an Immortal could die from falling off a cliff.
After the Red Dust Immortal jumped down, just as Jiang Li said, she didn’t plunge straight down to the bottom of the cliff, but instead, she was caught by a platform.
Inside the platform was a cave. There was evidence of both natural formations and human excavation.
Li Nian’er started to tread in mid-air, using the force of a step to compress the air in an instant and descended towards the cliff.
“This is the tomb of the cultivator of the Divinity Transformation Stage?”
After walking forward for two steps, Li Nian’er felt she touched a barrier, and a voice echoed in her ears.
“I am the Beast Master. I have been poisoned by evildoers. I cannot bear to see the exquisite techniques that I have learned throughout my life disappear. Therefore, I have created this place. Those who can find this place must be blessed by destiny. If you are under the age of thirty and have reached the Core Formation, you can enter my secret realm. Pass the tests and receive my spirit legacy. Those who forcibly enter will face disaster by fire.”
Next to the entrance of the secret realm, there were several charred skeletons. Presumably, these were by those who did not meet the criteria for entering the secret realm and forcibly intruded.
Under the age of thirty and Core Formation were both conditions that Li Nianer satisfied, so she went into the secret realm.
Jiang Li and Red Dust Immortal did not meet these conditions. However, neither of them took the Beast Master’s warning seriously.
If a Divinity Transformation Stage cultivator could control a flame that could scare True Immortals and Mahayana realm cultivators, that would really be something.
As expected, Jiang Li forced his entry into the secret realm. The blazing flame scorched him, but Jiang Li yawned and went in.
The fire couldn’t even burn a hole in the corner of his clothes.
Red Dust Immortal was also the same.
“It seems we are not the first to arrive.”
Jaing Li saw there were already people in the secret realm, undergoing the trials by the Beast Master.
Poison Prince and his team were tormented by the Beast Master’s trials. The prince, who usually dressed elegantly in Celestial Silkworm Thread woven clothes and lived exclusively in the finest rooms, now looked like a beggar, exposing his alarmingly pale body, with black veined showing under his skin. This was a symbol of practicing poison, and at his age, he might even achieve the Ten Thousand Poisons Body.
Inside the secret realm was a vast space, mainly comprising of a jungle. From time to time, monsters could be seen flashing in the woods.
These monsters were all high-level, yet had not awakened their minds.
For monsters, it’s extremely difficult to awaken their minds without external aid.
The phrase “Divinity Transformation Stage” usually has a significant meaning to monsters; prior to reaching it, monsters remain oblivious to logic, operating almost solely on instinct. However, when a monster reaches the Divinity Transformation Stage, they have a sudden moment of clarity, akin to a blind man seeing light for the first time, giving them a newfound sense of reality and a clearer understanding of the world.
They can understand everything, speak human language, know about transformation, not act solely on instinct, but think before they take action.
The monsters that can cultivate to reach the Divinity Transformation Stage are very few, but the monsters awakening minds earlier also have benefits, hence the first generation of the White Marsh Emperor studied a method that can stimulate monsters to awaken their minds earlier, and with this method, he established the White Marsh Empire.
The monsters in the secret realm have always lived in the secret realm since they were born, and they certainly haven’t been given an opportunity by the White Marsh Empire to awaken their minds. They are the most primitive monsters, operating on instinct.
Jiang Li, using his Divine Sense, saw quite a few monsters of Nascent Soul Stage, which were extremely dangerous to Golden Core cultivators.
The nascent soul stage monsters that hadn’t awakened their minds had instincts to avoid danger and they would avoid those who are dangerous to them while hunting harmless prey.
Among the three members of Jiang Li’s team, even the weakest one was at the Nascent Soul Stage, making them extremely dangerous in the eyes of the Nascent Soul stage monsters.
However, Poison Prince’s team, even the strongest one was only at the Golden Core Stage, making them prey in the eyes of the Nascent Soul Stage monsters.
“I will disclose three trials, and for each trial passed, a key will be awarded. Those who pass all three trials may use the three keys to open the door to the depths of the secret realm. There lies both my tomb and my spiritual legacy.”
“The first trial will test the affinity towards monsters. Requirement: Within half an hour, there should be at least thirty Foundation Establishment Stage monsters within a hundred-meter radius around the trial taker and the monsters would not attack you.” The Beast Master’s terminal voice echoed in their ears.
“This seems pretty simple. “Li Nian’er was eager to try and prepared to collect thirty monsters because she felt she had a high affinity for monsters.
She walked into the forest to approach a little rabbit. However, she forgot that she wasn’t wearing the jade pendant her mother gave her. The dragon’s dominance inside her body was a terrifying presence to the monsters. Even without malicious intent, the sight of Li Nian’er’s little dragon horn and the pure dragon blood scared off the little rabbit.
Li Nian’er still didn’t realize that she wasn’t wearing her jade pendant. She thought there must be some kind of accident just now, but after trying a few times, it ended with the monsters running away, even the Nascent Soul Stage monsters were scared away by her.
The dragon is the apex creature among the monsters. The monsters care most about the bloodline hierarchy. Though the Nascent Soul Stage monsters are good at cultivation, their bloodline level is too low. When they encounter Li Nian’er with dragon blood, they naturally turn around and run away.
Li Nian’er was so furious that she displayed her law body. Her vague fifty-foot law body extended dozens of arms to grab those weak monsters. If these monsters wanted to resist, she flat-out hit them until they didn’t dare to attack her anymore!
They must have thought that she was easy to push around!
Red Dust Immortal also looked eager to try. These Nascent Soul Stage monsters that could easily crush a boulder with a single claw swipe were harmless little animals to her.
She loved little animals, and of course, the little animals loved her too.
She sat down and took off a black silk glove. Exposing just a bit of skin was enough for the beasts to feel Red Dust Immortal’s charm, causing them to flock to her from all directions and surround her.
“It’s pretty simple.” Red Dust Immortal laughed, stroking the head of a little tiger. Its fluffy fur felt very comfortable under her hand.
“It does seem simple.” Jiang Li nodded, flying straight to the end of the secret realm. Looking at the gate that had three keyholes, he smashed it with a punch, revealing the Beast Master’s tomb and legacy..
