They were originally dosticated within the secret realm, but after the war, the sect was destroyed, and many demon beasts survived, becoming highly aggressive. Once they detect an intruder, they attack imdiately. This ti, I encountered two or three Three-headed Flying Centipedes. If I weren’t fast enough, I would have been in big trouble."
"Are they that formidable?"
Chen Fan clicked his tongue in amazent.
To know that Elder Wang is a Mid Stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist, in Yan Country, he can walk sideways unchallenged.
"Chen Fan, you may not know, a single Three-headed Flying Centipede is equivalent to a Mid Stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist. Besides having an iron armor that is invulnerable to weapons and impervious to fire and water, it can also fly and burrow. Although its body is only about ten ters long, killing a Beast King-level Fierce Beast outside would be an easy task.
This creature, even if there’s just one, is enough to give a headache. If three appear at once and I react a bit slower or get greedy, you wouldn’t see now."
"So this is a demon beast?"
Chen Fan thought to himself.
A body over ten ters long can kill a Beast King-level Fierce Beast several tis its size?
Suddenly, a bold idea ford in his mind.
If he could capture a few of these creatures, wouldn’t the upcoming city defense battle be much easier?
When he went to Rat City before, he obtained a Cultivation Technique for controlling demon beasts, and the so-called Rat King also controlled several Commander-level Fierce Beasts using this technique.
Besides that, he also had an Ancient Brass Whistle in his hand, which, when blown, could drive nearby Fierce Beasts into a frenzied state.
"I think I should give it a try."
The more Chen Fan thought, the more tempted he beca.
If he had a few demon beasts comparable to Beast King-level Fierce Beasts, the upcoming battle with a dozen Celestial Realm Martial Artists in two days would significantly lessen his burden.
Of course, compared to this, he was more interested in the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi within the secret realm.
According to Elder Wang’s earlier statents, even the outer layers of the secret realm had Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi that was two to three tis more abundant than here. What if he ventured farther in? Five tis? Six tis?
What does this an?
This ans that his efficiency in absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and converting it into True Essence could be increased by three to four tis, five to six tis.
"Elder Wang."
He imdiately spoke, "Can you take to that secret realm?"
Elder Wang had expected Chen Fan to say this. After all, when Shi Tao first heard his introduction to the secret realm, he was eager to explore it.
However, at that ti, Shi Tao had not yet reached the Celestial Realm, and entering with insufficient strength was just suicide.
Even if Shi Tao had reached the Celestial Realm, entering it was still a life-and-death situation, so he repeatedly warned that one must reach the Mid Stage of the Celestial Realm to have the qualification to enter.
But Chen Fan was different. Even in the True Essence Realm, he accomplished things that even Elder Wang couldn’t be sure to succeed in.
The secret realm could be entered.
"Chen Fan, I heard about what happened in the Martial Arts Association from Shi Tao, so I know you are very anxious to improve your strength in a short ti. Going to the secret realm can indeed boost your strength quickly, even making it possible to reach the Celestial Realm. However,"
Elder Wang’s face turned grave, "the dangers inside are imnse. Even the noble families of Yan Country today dare not stay long inside. Your strength is good, but if you let your guard down, death is a matter of monts."
"Elder Wang, I understand your concerns."
Chen Fan said solemnly, "Rest assured, I will proceed cautiously in the secret realm and not act recklessly."
"Mm, as long as you understand."
Elder Wang nodded, "Then co back now, and I will take you to the secret realm."
"Alright, I am heading back now. Thank you, Elder Wang," Chen Fan said joyfully.
After hanging up, he imdiately headed out, walking towards the city gate.
"Is he leaving?"
Seeing Chen Fan leave the villa and lock the door, the people outside were surprised.
"Just ca back and leaving again?"
"Maybe he is going out for so task and will be back soon. It’s quite chaotic outside now, no place to go."
"Who cares? We should mind our own business. I’ve heard the beast tide will soon be upon us."
"Yes, sigh, who knows when such anxious days will end."
Chen Fan did not pay any attention to these people. He had decided to check out the secret realm first and see the situation.
If it was too dangerous and he couldn’t ta the demon beasts inside, he would continue looking for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures instead.
About half an hour later, the outline of Anshan City appeared in his view.
At this mont, a figure from within the city quickly approached.
Seeing this, Chen Fan hurriedly went to et the person, as he recognized it was Elder Wang.
It was clear that when he sensed the other’s presence, the other also sensed his.
"Elder Wang."
Chen Fan stopped and bowed.
"Haha, no need for formalities, stand up quickly," Elder Wang reached out and helped Chen Fan up. He used True Essence to secretly perceive Chen Fan’s condition, and after noticing nothing unusual, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Here, eat this and see."
Elder Wang revealed an item in his hand.
"What is this?"
Chen Fan curiously examined the herb-like root in front of him.
"This is Celestial Net Root, a Low Grade Treasure dicine," Elder Wang explained. "For Celestial Realm Martial Artists, it’s also a great supplent."
"I see."
Chen Fan nodded.
In that case, there must be Middle Grade Treasure dicine and Top-grade Treasure dicine as well.
He wondered how much Primordial True Essence this Celestial Net Root, deed a Low Grade Treasure dicine by Elder Wang, could add compared to the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures he consud before.
Thinking of this, he reached out and took it. He took a bite and imdiately felt a faint sweetness spread through his mouth.
The taste was neither particularly good nor bad.
He finished the whole Celestial Net Root in a few bites and looked at his stats, his eyes lighting up.
His Primordial True Essence had increased by a thousand points!
Its effect was about a quarter stronger than the Purple Bodhi he had previously consud, which cost 1.2 million.
"How do you feel?"
Elder Wang asked, with a look of expectation in his eyes.
"Very good. If I had more, it would be even better," Chen Fan replied honestly.
The 1,000 points of Primordial True Essence increased his True Qi by about 0.5 percent.
If he had around two hundred more Celestial Net Roots, his Sea of Qi would be full.
"You sure think big," Elder Wang chuckled helplessly.
Did he not wish for the sa?
Like he said earlier, this item was a major supplent for Early Stage Celestial Realm Martial Artists. Even for a Mid Stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist like himself, it still had so effect.
If he had enough of them, he could also break through to the Late Stage of the Celestial Human Realm. By then, the Martial Arts Association’s crisis would be naturally resolved.
But is that possible?
"Chen Fan, I don’t want to nag, but before we set off, I need to remind you: this secret realm we are heading to is extrely dangerous. With one misstep, we could both die inside. Are you really sure about this?"
"Elder Wang, I’m ntally prepared," Chen Fan replied without hesitation. "I know it’s perilous inside, but as they say, ’nothing ventured, nothing gained.’
"Indeed," Elder Wang sighed.
He knew this was their last chance to save the Martial Arts Association.
"Since you are ready, let’s set off. Rember, once inside the secret realm, we must be extrely careful. If we encounter demon beasts, do not act rashly."
"Understood, Elder Wang, I will rember," Chen Fan quickly responded.
"Follow ."
With those words, the two set off together, one following the other, heading into the distance.
