Young Noble Be Monster Slaying

"It will be very difficult to pass the first trial. Let's see how far they can go, shall we?"

In the vast, quiet hall of the Boundless Palace, a misty screen of light hovered beside Venerable Wen Yuan. Within this screen of light were scenes from the hidden realm.

Typically, those at the seventh realm possessed the ability to comprehend the Great Dao and refine a hidden realm. By the time they reached the eighth realm, they would all have their own hidden realms. The differences between these hidden realms largely depended on the individual Eminent One; some invested considerable effort into designing and constructing their realms, while others took a more relaxed approach.

Venerable Wen Yuan's hidden realm was crafted with great care. At first glance, it appeared massive, and as the disciples entered and spread out, they quickly vanished from sight.

"That's not necessarily the case," Di Nufeng stated confidently."While students of poor teachers might be weaker, my disciple, along with Yan Zi's and Uncle Sikong's, are definitely not weaklings."

Wang Xuanling: "?"

Out of the four disciples who participated, she specifically selected three, clearly indicating her target.

Wang Xuanling, the grand peak master did not indulge her. He immediately sneered and taunted, "You think you know how to teach? They'd probably only learn how to be a rebel from you."

Di Nufeng's previous attempts to recruit people for a rebellion had become a running joke among the peak masters of Mount Shu, which was why Wang Xuanling mentioned it to mock her.

"Why would you say that?" Di Nufeng responded sarcastically. "I was intending to make you my grandson when the rebellion is a success and I become the ruler!"

"Who would want to be your grandson?" Wang Xuanling snapped.

At that moment, the Alchemy Master tugged at Wang Xuanling's sleeve and advised, "There's no winning an argument with her. Say less and let it go."

"Look at how sensible my crown prince is!" Di Nufeng praised.

Alchemy Master: "?"

"Enough already!" The Discipline Master turned and glared at them, causing an immediate hush among the crowd.

Their eyes were fixed on the screen of light, using their divine sense to track the figures they wished to observe. Although the four disciples had just entered the hidden realm, the situation was already starting to change.

…

The moment Chu Liang stepped into the hidden realm, he felt a momentary daze and found himself in an autumn forest blanketed with withered yellow leaves. The wind whistled past him, unveiling a grim and barren scene.

He extended his divine sense as far as possible, but still couldn't explore the entirety of the forest. With no other options, he decided to move slowly in one direction, careful not to make too much noise or emit a strong aura.

Since he was unaware of the four pursuers' locations, he naturally didn't dare to fly recklessly. After walking for a while, he sensed moisture in the wind and quickened his pace.

At the edge of the forest, he found a coastline, where a rainbow-colored pillar of light shot straight up into the sky from the center of the vast sea.

That pillar of light was likely the exit they were searching for.

However, crossing the vast sea without any protection while being chased would be extremely difficult.

As for crossing the sea, Chu Liang had a feeling that it wouldn't be as easy as it seemed.

After some thought, he gently kicked a stone into the water.

Plop.

The stone plopped into the water, creating a small splash and sending ripples across the surface.

Boom—

In an instant, a giant figure surged out of the water! Its mottled scaly armor sparkled in the light, and its body was as large as a mountain. It looked like an enormous crocodile, yet its four claws were thick and sharp, resembling those of a lion or tiger.

It let out a roar, and a fierce glint shone in its eyes!

"Roar!"

As the giant crocodile emerged, a four-winged flood dragon leaped into the air nearby. Its gray figure ascended for a moment before plunging back into the sea.

"Aooo!"

In the distance, a gigantic tiger-head turtle surfaced, making a splash as it broke through the water's surface.

"Hroooh!"

A single stone sent waves crashing everywhere.

Beneath the calm facade of the water, there existed nothing but terrifying and ferocious creatures!

If he had the strength to fight his way through the sea, he might as well just take down the four disciples from the previous generation.

However...

Chu Liang glanced around. Despite all the commotion he had just created, there was no sign of the pursuers.

…

"Damn, why are two people chasing me?"

With his dragon blood surging, Ling Ao rushed through the towering trees of the forest, darting between the thick underbrush.

He fled recklessly, unafraid of alerting his pursuers, because the pursuers were already chasing him! And there were two!

Ling Ao didn't know why, but as soon as he landed, he found himself face-to-face with a senior brother from the previous generation. The two locked eyes, and Ling Ao's instinctive reaction was not to flee but to engage in a spar with him.

He lunged ahead, but his fist ended up missing the target.

The senior brother from the previous generation was a cultivator at the pinnacle of the sixth realm. There was no way he would let Ling Ao get close so easily.

He used Dimension Compression to widen the gap between them, then, with a quick flick of his hand, summoned ten thousand swords to create a prison that trapped Ling Ao.

The prison made of ten thousand swords was created by activating the Ten Thousand Sword Seal and using the light of the swords to securely trap the target. Even the slightest movement would lead to the target being pierced by countless swords.

But Ling Ao didn't care one bit. As the dragon blood in his body surged, he charged forward without worrying about getting hurt, breaking through the sword prison with sheer force!

This took the senior brother by surprise, causing him to smile slightly.

However, after getting only a few steps away, Ling Ao stumbled upon another disciple from the previous generation. Among the four disciples from that generation, two were men and two were women, and the one standing in front of him was one of the women.

This time, Ling Ao didn't confront her head-on. Instead, he quickly changed direction, but the woman instantly became a blur of afterimages, encircling him with hundreds of shadowy figures.

Gritting his teeth, he swung his fist at one of the afterimages and shattered it. However, as he charged past the afterimages, he suddenly realized that the male disciple behind him had already caught up.

Ling Ao was pursued and surrounded by two disciples from the former generation.

He couldn't help but curse his bad luck. Of all the places to be randomly teleported, how did he end up running into two of them immediately?

Is this fate?

He sprinted with all his might, moving like the wind. Meanwhile, the two behind him were merely trailing along leisurely, showing no urgency and even chatting casually.

"No need to rush, let him run for a bit," the woman said calmly. "If there are other junior brothers or sisters nearby, he might lure them out. We can catch them all at once."

"Hehe, I was thinking the same thing," the man replied with a grin. "But keep an eye on the time. We need to capture him before the Primordial Chaos Hidden Realm changes."

…

Xu Ziyang found himself in a chilling world of ice and snow.

He stood amidst the snow, extending his divine sense to explore the area around him.

Moments later, a shadowy figure descended from the front.

Standing before him was a tall disciple from the previous generation, looking at Xu Ziyang with a strange expression. At this moment, he stared at Xu Ziyang with an odd expression.

"You're not running?" he asked.

"Why should I run?" Xu Ziyang replied calmly, slowly unsheathing his sword. "There are four of you and four of us. If we can each take down one, that should be enough."

"Heh." The senior brother chuckled. "Alright, you're quite bold."

With a swift motion, he drew a bronze longsword, declaring, "But back then, I was even bolder than you!"

Boom—

The sword qi roared like a dragon, crashing violently onto the snowy plain. In that clash of sword qi, it was obvious that Xu Ziyang was at a disadvantage.

Currently, Xu Ziyang had activated two of the elemental foundational qi and was at the second level of the fifth realm. However, this senior brother was at the pinnacle of the sixth realm. Not only had he achieved Completion of the Five Elements, he had also attained the Divine Nine's Profound Transcendent Form.

Upon reaching the Transcendence Realm of the Divine Nine's Profound Mental Cultivation Technique, a unique Divine Nine's Profound Transcendent Form would be unlocked.

The techniques of the Mount Shu Sect were righteous and harmonious, and this Divine Nine's Profound Transcendent Form didn't possess many mystical powers. Instead, it significantly enhanced the three energies—vitality, qi, and spirit—with a particular emphasis on strengthening the foundational qi.

Once a cultivator reached the sixth realm, they could even temporarily enter a state known as the Boundless Sea of Qi, which allowed for effortless use of any divine abilities.

Since Xu Ziyang had not yet reached the sixth realm, he was naturally at a disadvantage in a clash of sword qi.

The powerful rebound from the surging sword qi sent him flying back ten zhang. However, he refused to give up. Instead, he quickly adjusted his strategy.

Taking a step back, he suddenly launched himself forward!

As he soared toward his opponent, his body shifted into the Three-Headed and Six-Armed Form.

He intended to engage in close combat.

His opponent quickly figured out what he was up to but chose to stand his ground. With a swift motion, he formed a seal, and a colorful light enveloped his body in a vajra-like aura. He had also transformed into the Three-Headed and Six-Armed Form!

"Then let's see what you're made of."

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang—

In an instant, they exchanged over a hundred blows, but just after a few clashes, cracks began to appear on Xu Ziyang's fifth-realm Metallic Body!

His opponent's foundational qi strength and the resilience of their Metallic Body were far superior to his.

Clearly, it would be very difficult to win.

In truth, Xu Ziyang had never been confident of winning; he simply didn't believe in running away without putting up a fight. But now, faced with his opponent's overwhelming strength, he realized retreat was his best option.

However, escaping wasn't easy. The senior brother pursued him relentlessly, landing blow after blow, shattering Xu Ziyang's defenses and seemingly intent on completely crippling his combat ability!

Suddenly, Xu Ziyang's six arms moved in unison, and he unleashed three divine abilities at once!

The sight left the former senior brother stunned. While he could also use the Three-Headed and Six-Armed Form, activating different immortal arts with each arm was an incredibly challenging skill—one he hadn't yet mastered.

Swoosh—

Xu Ziyang first activated Dimension Compression to retreat, and a golden mist erupted before him, unleashing thousands of sword rays that shot out to cover his escape.

This technique of using six arms to cast three spells simultaneously created a brief gap between them.

However, the disparity in their strength couldn't be closed by technique alone. His opponent charged through the sword rays with his formidable body, relentless in his pursuit!

As the distance between them diminished once more, a sudden clap of thunder roared overhead!

Boom—
