Within the secret realm of the Five Elements.
Gao Yang, who was dressed in a brocade robe, had his eyes dazzled. When he saw his surroundings clearly, he was suddenly in a small fiery red world.
All the fellow disciples around him disappeared, leaving him alone.
He looked around and saw that the sky was filled with the brilliance of sunset, and the entire land was a desolate red color, much like an exposed, uninhabited large mineral deposit.
"Is this the inside of the Five Elements Secret Realm?"
Gao Yang glanced around, and after realizing that there was no danger, the vigilance in his heart gradually dissipated, and he curiously looked at the scene in front of him.
He harnessed the escaping light, jumped into the air, and soon had a panoramic view of the entire small world.
The entire Fire World is only a dozen miles in radius, and the ground is flat with not many undulations. However, seven or eight miles away from him, there is a small hill with a height of a hundred feet.
"Um?!"
His eyesight was astonishing, far better than ordinary people, and he saw at a glance a small metal pot with silver luster on the top of the hill.
"Spiritual weapon?! Am I so lucky?!"
Gao Yang was suddenly pleasantly surprised.
Unlike the optimistic and naive Foundation Establishment Masters outside who were deceived by false news, as a Foundation Establishment monk from the Lingyang Sect's head family, he knew the situation inside the Five Elements Secret Realm very well.
After decades of exploration, there are only a few parts of the many small worlds that have not been explored. Most of them have been explored back and forth many times. There are basically no treasures left, and even if there are, it is basically not his turn.
He didn't come in with the hope of getting rich this time, he just respected his orders and tried his best to make a future.
Unexpectedly, his luck seemed to be surprisingly good. In the small world where he was randomly transported to the Five Elements Secret Realm, there was actually a treasure.
"The spiritual weapon that can be collected by the original Five Elements Sanren must be at least a mid-level spiritual weapon, right?"
"To say the least, even if it's just an elementary spiritual weapon, it's still worth a lot of spiritual stones..."
Gao Yang suddenly struggled in his heart when he thought of this.
All treasures must be protected by formation puppets. This is the experience and law discovered by several golden elixir forces back then.
If he wants to take away this spiritual weapon, he will definitely have to tangle with the formation puppet. When the opponent's strength is unknown, it is difficult to say how long it will take him, and it is not certain that he may even be beaten and defeated in embarrassment.
This was obviously contrary to his mission goal and made him feel a little sorry for the sect, so he was very hesitant and entangled in his heart.
And as he was thinking:
Silently, a trace of invisible power penetrated, quietly changing Gao Yang's thoughts and amplifying some of his emotions.
"What am I afraid of?!"
The unwillingness and greed in Gao Yang's heart quickly took over:
"This is inside the Five Elements Secret Realm. Even the ancestors of Zhenyang are not aware of what is happening here. If I don't tell anyone, who will know about it?"
"There are very few unexplored small worlds inside the Five Elements Secret Realm. I'm afraid I won't encounter it a second time. Besides, I no longer have the protection of Master Jin, so I have to rely on myself in the future!"
"Anyway, it's a treasure that's been delivered to your door. If you don't take it, you'll be blamed for it!"
Thinking of this, he immediately made up his mind and rushed towards the hill with the escape light.
It is said that fate plays a trick on people:
Lingyang Sect is also divided into many factions. He is a die-hard direct descendant of Elder Jin's faction. He has been doing very well. Being able to take over the job of sitting on Xianmen Island at the early stage of foundation building shows that his background is strong.
Seeing Elder Jin's status getting higher and higher, being taken more seriously by Ancestor Zhenyang, and his position becoming more stable, he felt naturally happy.
Unexpectedly, the Tianbao Tower murder case a year ago directly shattered all of this.
After the death of Elder Jin, his faction lost its backbone and the large number of benefits brought by his status as the general manager of Tianbao Tower. It quickly declined, was broken up and annexed.
Gao Yang himself was also driven out of his position as the guardian elder of Xianmen Island. He became disgraced and his status within the sect also plummeted, disappearing into the shadow of everyone.
Until today, after entering the Five Elements Secret Realm, he seemed to be in good hands again.
"Whoosh!"
Gao Yang's escape light quickly rushed to the top of the mountain, stretched out his hand, and picked up the small silver metal pot.
"Huh? It's actually just a primary spiritual weapon..."
Gao Yang was a little disappointed, but he soon felt relieved.
An elementary spiritual weapon is worth at least more than 10,000 spiritual stones, which is a big windfall for him, especially now that he does not have the oil and water brought by the fat man who is stationed in Xianmen Island, and his life is not easy. Not as good as before.
And the moment he put away the small silver metal pot:
"Rumble..."
The wind and clouds in the sky suddenly changed, crimson clouds gathered together, and the ground buzzed and shook.
For a moment:
"Come!"
A sharp strange scream sounded, and several giant humanoid spirits with flames all over their bodies jumped down from the red clouds in the sky. They were extremely strong and fierce, and their aura was quite tyrannical.
Not only in the sky, but also on the ground, clumps of flames rose up, and fire giants emerged, roaring towards the high sun.
All of a sudden, there were more than a dozen fire giants in the sky, on the ground, and in all directions, all rushing toward him.
"These fire giants are quite powerful!"
Gao Yang had a stern look on his face. After putting away the small silver metal pot, he took out his spiritual weapon, activated his body protection method, and instantly fought with many fire giants.
The strength of this single fire giant slightly exceeds that of Qi Refining Perfection, and there is still a big gap between it and the foundation building stage.
But when many efreets come together, their strength will increase with each other, which can pose a great threat to the monks in the early stage of foundation building. Some weaker ones may not even be able to defeat them in the early stage of foundation building, and even in the middle stage of foundation building, they will find it difficult.
However, Gao Yang's strength was not bad, and he had more than one spiritual weapon on his body. He quickly gained the advantage and began to eliminate these fire giants one by one.
"Rumble..."
After the fierce fight lasted for more than two quarters of an hour, Gao Yang was panting and had lost most of his mana, and finally only four or five efreets were left.
But at this moment:
"Buzz!"
After a burst of space fluctuations directly above the sky, a new figure suddenly appeared.
"Um?!"
The newly arrived Master Establishment glanced around and immediately noticed Gao Yang and the Fire Giant who were fighting fiercely. His expression changed slightly:
"This person must have obtained a treasure, so he was entangled by these fire giants, right?"
"Looking at his Taoism, it seems that he belongs to Lingyang Sect? Hmm..."
Master Ji Zhu felt a little hesitant in his heart.
The monks from Lingyang Sect must be richer than these monks, not to mention that they are suspected of getting a relic.
A foundation-building master who is in a very poor condition but has a lot of money has to be said to be a big temptation, especially in a place like this where no one can trace him.
Originally, according to his idea, although the opponent's condition was very unfavorable, he was from a sect as large as Lingyang Sect after all, and who knew what trump cards he had, so he was not prepared to fight with the opponent.
But he only hesitated for a moment, and the greed and luck in his heart took over unknowingly:
"Damn it, the gold belt of murder and arson, let's fight!"
"I have worked so hard to accumulate spiritual stones. How long will it take me to buy a spiritual elixir that can increase the success rate of breaking through the bottleneck?"
"But if you kill this person, you will become rich instantly. Isn't this an obvious opportunity..."
As soon as he thought of this, he immediately used the method of breath concentration to cover his own escape light, and quietly moved closer to the small hill.
Just a dozen breaths later:
"ah!!"
A hasty scream suddenly sounded.
Gao Yang, who was fighting several efreets, was caught off guard and was blasted through the protective Taoist spell by the flying sword. If his robes had blocked most of the threat, he would have almost died from being pierced through the chest.
The remaining fire giants divided into two groups to entangle the attackers, giving Gao Yang a chance to breathe.
"you wanna die!"
Gao Yang retreated violently, furious and frightened. He no longer cared about the loss of his own mana. After forcibly swallowing a spiritual pill that stimulated vitality, he controlled the spiritual weapon and rushed forward again.
At this time, he would never dare to turn around and run away, otherwise he would be in a desperate situation if he left his back to the other side.
"Damn it!"
The base-building master who made the sneak attack felt a little annoyed, and even felt a trace of regret.
But then, this trace of regret was overwhelmed by stronger malice, and he said fiercely in his heart:
"Either don't do it, or do it!"
"Since you have offended this person, let's just do whatever it takes to kill him and avoid future troubles!"
Soon, the two foundation-building masters defeated the entangled fire giant spirits, and an extremely fierce life-and-death fight broke out. The battle instantly entered a white-hot state.
A similar scene not only happened in this small world of fire, but also took place in many small worlds in the outer layer of the entire Five Elements Secret Realm.
As if it was deliberately arranged, conflicts and contradictions continued to break out, and blood and fire gradually ignited.
…………
The core place.
In the magnificent main hall that is hundreds of feet wide, Zhang Yao is sitting on the throne, with a light curtain that is hundreds of feet long and dozens of feet wide floating in front of him.
On the light screen, there are phantoms of small worlds everywhere. Some of the small worlds have red dots with different light and dark colors and different gloss. This is the real-time monitoring status of the entire Five Elements Secret Realm.
This is also due to the third-level top monitoring formation, which can cover the entire secret realm, allowing Zhang Yao to have insight into everything regardless of detail.
"Well, this person seems to be from the Shanhe Sect, so let's arrange for him to be here."
"Monks in the late stage of foundation building should not be careless. Let them hone their skills here first."
"These two are enemies of each other. When we met, we started fighting without even saying a few words. It saved me a lot of effort..."
Zhang Yao's spiritual thoughts are running, monitoring the situation of many small worlds at all times.
From time to time, he would use his spiritual thoughts to use formations to spy on the situation in a specific small world, and then fine-tune the formations to provide targeted emotional stimulation.
Of course, he doesn't have the ability to use everything at once, but he can still grasp the general situation. After all, whether it is building foundations and fighting skills, or breaking through formations to obtain treasures, the results cannot be achieved in a short time.
The time difference in between gave him plenty of time to make a decision, but overall it was still very tense, after all, there were too many people to monitor.
This is also thanks to the fact that his soul is extremely powerful, and it is much higher than the level of perfect foundation building. Otherwise, others would be in a hurry and find it difficult to take care of everything.
"It should be almost done..."
Zhang Yao noticed that the speed of outside foundation-building monks entering the secret realm was slowing down, and it was obvious that they had reached the last batch.
A few breaths later, a particularly bright red dot suddenly appeared in a small golden world.
"The Breaker has appeared!"
Zhang Yao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately had an idea and controlled the formation to directly seal the small world.
Along with the instructions from the formation center:
The small world where the Breaker was located was instantly sealed. Outsiders could not teleport in, and those inside could not teleport away.
"It's done."
Zhang Yao nodded slightly and showed a satisfied smile.
The Breaker is a key chess piece and the main material he uses for blood sacrifices to melt souls. Of course, he must be strictly guarded.
Especially at the current stage, he mainly uses the ecstasy formation to stimulate and search for a series of negative emotions such as murderous thoughts, greed, hatred, disgust, unwillingness, anger, depression, despair, fear... and so on.
For this reason, he has made a series of preparations to modify the secret realm transmission rules, deliberately intensifying conflicts as much as possible, all focusing on collecting soul energy.
But after this step is completed:
Next, we must focus on stimulating and collecting a series of positive emotions such as joy, excitement, satisfaction, excitement, gratitude, reverence, confidence, courage... and so on.
During this process, he had to change the teleportation rules back so that monks from various families could gradually gather together and step into the script he had prepared to provide him with the resources he needed.
For all this, he has been preparing for a whole year. He has basically imagined various scenarios and has a plan.
"Buzz!"
With the help of the formation, his spiritual mind penetrated into the small golden world and swept across it.
He 'saw' the Border Breaker sitting on the ground blankly, looking aimless and aimless. While he felt at ease in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a trace of compassion:
"Poor Qian Le is also a miserable man. His whole life has been ruined and he has become a puppet in the hands of others."
"His parents thought that following him was a chicken and a dog ascending to heaven, and they happily left Weiguo together, but they didn't expect that they would send their son into hell with their own hands..."
He shook his head secretly, and after finding nothing unusual, he withdrew his spiritual thoughts.
"Um?!"
But at this moment, Zhang Yao, who had just withdrawn his spiritual thoughts, suddenly changed his expression.
His eyes were fixed on the light screen in front of him. On it, there was an extremely shining red dot in a small world. It was even brighter than the red dot representing the Breaker!
"What's going on?!"
Zhang Yao was shocked and confused:
"Breaking Realm is a foundation-building perfect monk who practices the way of forming formations and entering the body. In terms of mana level alone, even I am inferior. He is almost at the limit of the foundation-building stage."
"How could someone have a more powerful magic aura than him? It can't be a Golden Core monk who came in personally, right?"
He immediately used the formation, put his spiritual thoughts into it, and shot across the space:
"Buzz!"
The next moment, Zhang Yao saw a strange-looking three-faced man with a red gold ring around his neck, holding a flying sword and a seal, appearing on a desolate land.
"What is this?!"
