Chapter 469
Xiao Jinting guessed around one-third of the cultivators had died in the secret realm since it opened. With the death of so many Nascent Souls, the sects would face a challenge of power reshuffling.
Although the secret realm was dangerous, the cultivators that survived had more or less harvested treasures from this place.
Xiao Jinting thought of the Immortal Crystal in the jade space. Although he could earn spiritual stones by selling pills, it was not possible to exchange pills for the Immortal Crystal. Even if he didn’t get anything for the rest of the journey, he was satisfied that he got the crystal and the highest-grade spiritual stones.
Suddenly, they heard a rumbling sound.
Xu Lingfeng had a bad feeling and said, “Run.” Xiao Jinting had the same feeling.
Knowing that it was too late to run, Xu Lingfeng tossed out a defensive weapon that would make them invisible and hid in the mine together with the others.
A gigantic hare bounced over. When it kicked, half of a hill was gone. That was why there was a rumbling sound.
The hare had red eyes as beautiful as rubies, but they were filled with murderous intent. Xiao Jinting searched with his soul force and found a Nascent Soul got kicked by the hare and swallowed up by it.
His heart sank. He thought they should leave the damn place. It was too dangerous.
He couldn’t help muttering, “What a ferocious hare!”
Xu Muan said nervously, “It’s more aggressive than Xiaodong’s pheasant.”
They saw a sharp sword cut at the mountain-like hare.
It was a Deity Transformation cultivator, whose power was overwhelming. Xiao Jinting couldn’t help longing to have such power.
The hare extended a leg and moved it around. The sword hit the leg, and a strong light exploded.
“That hare is not inferior to the Deity Transformation.”
Xiao Jinting frowned. The Deity Transformation left after he fought with the hare for a while. Xiao Jinting guessed the cultivator was thinking of taming the hare, but he gave up when he found it was difficult.
Xu Muan said, “Are hares in the Immortal World so powerful?”
Xiao Jinting shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”
Xu Muan said, “If the hares there are so ferocious, the Immortal World is not a safe place.”
Xiao Jinting rubbed his chin and thought, “The secret realm is formed by the fragments of the Immortal world, and it is dangerous. Therefore, it’s more dangerous in the Immortal World. The Deity Transformation Cultivators longed to advance to the Immortal World. If they did make it, they might get killed by a kick of a hare from nowhere.
After the Deity Transformation cultivator left, Xiao Jinting and the others left.
…
Suddenly, Xu Lingfeng paused and narrowed his eyes.
Xu Muan saw the sullen look on his face and asked, “Father, what’s wrong?”
Li Yi said, “It’s an SOS message from the Xu family. Something must have happened to them.”
Xu Muan didn’t know what to say.
Xiao Jinting glanced at Xu Lingfeng and asked, “It’s not far away. Shall we go and take a look?”
Xu Lingfeng hesitated and said, “Let’s go.”
A blue gigantic wolf was chasing Xu Lian. Its hair glowed, and it looked intimidating.
There was hatred in the wolf’s eyes. Xu Lian had wounds made by an ice sword, and he looked exhausted.
When he saw Xu Lingfeng and the others, his desperate eyes lit up.
Seeing that Xu Lian was in danger, Xu Lingfeng raised his sword and attacked the wolf, stopping it from assaulting Xu Lian.
Xu Lingfeng had concealed his real strength like Xiao Jinting, so Xu Lian didn’t know that he had reached the advanced level of Nascent Soul. When Xu Lingfeng attacked the wolf, Xu Lian knew it instantly.
The green wolf was fast, and Xu Lian blocked it with his sword.
Li Yi went up to Xu Lian and helped him up, saying, “Grandpa, are you okay?” Xu Lian let out a sigh of relief and took the chance to swallow a few pills.
He took a few deep breaths and forced a smile. “I’m still alive. The Blue Frost Wolf is ferocious.”
Xu Lingfeng confronted the wolf, and they had reached a deadlock.
Xiao Jinting waved his hand, and six spiritual swords flew out. He said, “Go.”
The swords formed an array and attacked the wolf, which got seriously injured.
Xu Lian looked at Xiao Jinting in terror.
He asked, “What weapons are they?” He had spent years refining weapons, and he couldn’t move his eyes away from any good weapons. When he saw Xiao Jinting’s spiritual swords, he got bewitched.
Xiao Jinting’s face darkened. He ignored Xu Lian and helped Xu Lingfeng deal with the wolf.
The spiritual swords were refined with Heavenly Thunder Wood of tens of thousands of years. He spent a lot of time and money on the swords, which didn’t let him down. They were even better than he had imagined.
Xu Lingfeng asked in confusion, “Grandpa, why are you alone? Didn’t you enter the secret realm with the family?”
Xu Lian shook his head and said sulkily, “Let’s not talk about it. Those guys found a wolf cub and wanted to catch it alive, but they accidentally killed it. After the cub died, the big wolf came out, and I had to stay behind and cover them.”
Xu Lian frowned. He didn’t agree to catch the cub, but Xu Peng insisted, so he had to help them. When the big wolf charged at them, he was asked to stay behind. He felt angry at the thought of Xu Peng and the others.
