Chapter 1014: Chapter 129 Zhao Linger
“Turtle Breath Technique?!”
After shaking off the pursuing enemies, Zhao Yu finally began to check the contents of the orange scroll, only to discover it wasn’t the attack spell he had imagined, but rather a supportive spell.
“It’s still decent, I suppose!”
Zhao Yu thought for a moment. The Turtle Breath Technique could ensure that once he hid, no one could find him, making it quite suitable for use in the secret realm.
Without much hesitation, he learned the spell right away.
Then, he burrowed into the ground, cast the Turtle Breath Technique, and decided to test its effects.
Three days later, Zhao Yu left the underground with satisfaction.
During these three days, dozens of cultivators flew over him, and without exception, none of them discovered his whereabouts.
Just as Zhao Yu was planning to continue hunting outside, the token at his waist suddenly trembled.
Zhao Yu took out the token and saw that it was a message from the outside world.
“Announcement: A teleportation barrier has risen from the edge to the center of the secret realm. All those who touch the barrier will be teleported out of the secret realm…”
After reading the message, he realized it was a barrier designed to narrow their range of movement, aimed at speeding up the elimination rate.
“It seems that people on the outside are getting impatient…”
Zhao Yu didn’t linger and swiftly flew up into the sky, heading in one direction.
In the following days, Zhao Yu was constantly hunting, reaping several green artifacts, but unfortunately, no scrolls—just some magical artifacts and medicinal pills.
Meanwhile, the area of the teleportation barrier was shrinking, reducing the space where they could move by tenfold compared to when they first entered the secret realm.
Accordingly, encounters between cultivators became more frequent, and it was common to see a few cultivators fighting fiercely.
At the same time, Zhao Yu also noticed that many people had learned green-colored escape techniques, and in terms of speed, they could actually match him.
After some thought, Zhao Yu finally decided to stay in the central area, casting the Turtle Breath Technique and quietly waiting for the trial to end.
Another three days passed, and the battles within the secret realm became more frequent. Many people, to prevent being eliminated too soon, were forced to form alliances.
Correspondingly, the alliance formed by the Zhou family and Ji family was the largest, with each side having fifty or sixty people, making it the largest group in the secret realm.
These two forces cooperated well and didn’t fight each other; instead, they started clearing up other organizations.
In just one day, all other forces had been cleanly swept away, leaving the Zhou and Ji families finally to meet.
“Just leaving like this is too uninteresting…”
As the leader, Ji Bufan looked at the people from the Zhou family and said indifferently, “There is a gold phantom beast to the north. Let’s target this phantom beast for a battle, how about it?”
“How will the gold items be divided?”
“Based on abilities. Before the gold phantom beast dies, we’ll all do our best to fight the beast, okay?”
“Okay!”
The people from the Zhou family didn’t want to leave so simply either and quickly agreed with the Ji family. The two groups merged and went to confront the gold phantom beast together.
They didn’t know that, just ten meters below them, someone else was hiding.
“Gold phantom beast…”
After hearing this, Zhao Yu was also somewhat tempted and thought about it before he finally emerged from the ground and quietly followed the direction where the two groups had gone.
The gold phantom beast was a hundred-meter-tall giant ape. On noticing the ant-like humans invading, it immediately let out a thunderous roar.
As soon as both sides made a move, the battle escalated intensely.
The sky was filled with attacks infused with spiritual power, looking very spectacular.
But these attacks hitting the giant ape couldn’t even break its skin and only fueled its rage further.
An hour later, the breath of the giant ape began to weaken, and its body became riddled with holes.
And the people attacking it had reduced from over a hundred to just thirty or so. The rest, either mishandled and died or crushed their token to avoid fatal injuries and left.
The thirty or so people who remained were all elites.
“Everyone, push harder, this beast is about to die!”
Compared to the others, Ji Bufan was still vibrant. Thanks to various high-level recovery pills he carried, he was in very good condition.
“Boom~!!”
With the joint attack from everyone, the giant ape finally fell to the ground with a crash and turned into a golden light.
“Golden scroll!”
All eyes on the scene lit up.
“Grab it!”
Someone shouted, and everyone sprang into action, rushing toward the golden scroll.
Ji Bufan, who had been eyeing it all along, naturally stood at the forefront, closest to the golden scroll.
Just as a smile appeared on his face and his hand was about to reach the scroll, a spiritual power fluctuation suddenly came from behind him.
Not good!
Ji Bufan was alarmed and quickly dodged to the side. Sure enough, a sword light flashed past him.
“You’ve got some nerve!”
Ji Bufan was furious. The person attacking him was unexpectedly from the Zhou family.
“Haha, didn’t you say it earlier? Everyone gets the golden items based on their skills…”
Just like that, the scene erupted into chaos again, all centered around the golden scroll.
Every time someone tried to pick up the scroll from the ground, it attracted a group of attackers.
Some even attacked the golden scroll directly to prevent others from getting it, and sent it flying.
“Whoosh~~!”
As the golden scroll was sent flying again, a streak of green light suddenly shot out.
“You dare!”
Countless attacks aimed at the green light, but the person it belonged to didn’t dodge and took all the attacks, grabbing the golden scroll in one swoop.
“Whoosh~~!”
After Zhao Yu had the scroll in hand, he didn’t look back and fully engaged his escape technique, heading for the perimeter.
