After a while, Lin Yifan finally spoke and asked, "What about the remaining disciples of the Diancang Sect? Where did they all run off to?"
"I guess they sneaked away!" Du Yuze replied.
The battle was extremely fierce just now. He was so focused on observing that he forgot about those heavily injured disciples of the Diancang Sect.
"Let them escape then! It doesn't really pose a threat."
Lin Yifan felt that his crisis was approaching increasingly closer. The news about the Immortal Level Martial Arts would probably be impossible to keep concealed.
Once the major sects know he possesses Immortal Level Martial Arts, they would surely assume he carries an Immortal Ring. At that time, with both Immortal Level Martial Arts and the Immortal Ring being fought over, it would definitely endanger his life.
Moreover, if Xiao Fang reveals the news of his martial arts and the illusory realm to the Medicine Saint, the Medicine Saint would surely assess his threat level.
If his threat level is great enough, beyond what the Medicine Saint can control, the Medicine Saint will certainly kill him personally.
The reality is just so cruel; a group of brainless Diancang Sect disciples have forced him onto a dead-end.
"May everything be safe and sound!"
Lin Yifan sighed inwardly, feeling very helpless.
"Boss, how did you and Junior Sister Xiao Fang manage to avoid the attack from the Diancang Sect's secret weapon just now?" Du Yuze asked with deep curiosity.
Due to the urgent situation earlier, he hadn't had the time to ask. Now that everything was resolved, he was eager to know the answer.
"We were in an illusory realm and then avoided it."
Xiao Fang grabbed the chance to answer, truly feeling that it was miraculous.
"Illusory realm? How would there be an illusory realm at this late hour?"
Du Yuze was filled with confusion, not knowing what Xiao Fang was referring to.
"I'm not sure either. Yifan said he personally created the illusory realm." Xiao Fang replied, tossing the question back to Lin Yifan for him to explain to everyone.
"The boss can actually create an illusory realm that can resist attacks from a True Master Third Realm Middle Stage?"
Du Yuze looked incredulous, finding it hard to believe this was true.
"Cough, cough!"
Lin Yifan coughed twice, feeling that his lie was rather extravagant, so he found an excuse to cover up: "My illusory realm is not within this world, so the Diancang Sect's secret weapon can't reach me."
"Not within this world? Then boss, can't you just open a space?"
Du Yuze was even more incredulous because opening a space is something only great figures can do. How could Lin Yifan, a mere Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Early Stage cultivator, manage it?
"You could say that this involves rather profound knowledge of arrays, which outsiders probably wouldn't understand." Lin Yifan replied half-truthfully.
"Wow! Boss, you're just too amazing, not only is your martial arts strong, your alchemy skills are high, and even your level in arrays is so outstanding. I truly admire you deeply."
Du Yuze couldn't help but exclaim, finding it truly exciting.
With such a strong protector, he certainly wouldn't be bullied in the future.
Xiao Fang found it hard to believe that Lin Yifan was a Spirit Formation Master, and that his level was beyond that of ordinary Spirit Formation Masters.
When did Lin Yifan learn about arrays? She recalled that their master seemed not to have taught Lin Yifan.
Now, Lin Yifan was surrounded by so many layers of mystery, she increasingly couldn't understand this man with extraordinary abilities.
"Hehe, Brother Du is being modest, how could I compare to you! You are still a formidable Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak, I'm merely a humble junior at Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Early Stage." Lin Yifan modestly responded.
"Junior Brother, you're being too humble. Despite your lower realm, your strength already surpasses high-realm me; my realm may be high, but I am no longer your match, so brother respectfully submits and admires you deeply."
Du Yuze analyzed earnestly and sincerely.
"Haha!"
Lin Yifan only laughed without speaking. Actually, he no longer paid much attention to those in the Divinity Transformation Realm; hence, what Du Yuze said made sense.
With the mystery solved, there wasn't much to talk about, so the three of them flew off from the small town to seek treasures at the next one.
Soon after they left, a big sect disciple arrived there.
The big sect disciple smelled a stench of blood in the small town, so he took a flashlight to investigate.
Not knowing what he would find, he was shocked when he did.
Because they discovered many corpses of cultivators in the small town, and these corpses still had blood flowing, seemingly in peril not too long ago.
They were very curious about which sect these dead cultivators belonged to, so they landed to check their identities.
When the words "Diancang Sect" appeared before them, they couldn't help but be astonished.
"Who on earth did this?" a Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Middle Stage cultivator couldn't resist asking.
The Diancang Sect was a major sect, generally, no one dared offend it, but why had so many disciples suddenly died?
Could it be that foreign cultivation organizations have infiltrated?
However, the major sects' great figures were guarding the entrance well; how could these people have entered?
"Was it killed by a Spirit Beast?"
This was the only possibility they could think of, because besides Diancang Sect disciples, there were no other sect disciples' corpses on the ground, ruling out a fight between two major sects.
Moreover, someone found a decapitated flying gecko spirit beast nearby, further supporting this theory.
With previous incidents as a warning, they needed to be cautious; this small town seemed unsafe and they didn't want to stay here long, so they quickly left.
Walking not far, they smelled another stench of blood and couldn't help but turn on their flashlights, illuminating below.
Upon seeing the appearance of this corpse, they gasped, their faces full of shock.
They knew whose body this was; it was Geng Yue, the leading figure of the Diancang Sect.
Geng Yue at Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak was actually killed, which was something they could never have imagined.
Because Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak is already the highest realm in this secret manual, and generally, leading figures have secret weapons in hand, with so many treasures, how did Geng Yue end up being killed?
They simply couldn't figure it out.
Unless it was caused by a powerful spirit beast, but the wounds on Geng Yue were not inflicted by spirit beasts, thus raising the question: how was Geng Yue killed, and were the Diancang Sect disciples in the small town truly killed by spirit beasts?
They felt the situation was far more complex than they imagined, possibly involving spirit beasts or perhaps due to other sect members.
"With whom does the Diancang Sect have such deep hatred that they must be killed?"
Su Xinming of the Huashan Sect was very puzzled and eager to uncover the truth.
The secret realm exploration only lasted a few hours, and one major sect was already out, indicating the competition inside was far more perilous than they imagined.
Upon landing and inspecting the ground, they found Geng Yue had been wounded by a sharp sword and killed instantly with a stab to the heart.
Whose martial arts are so powerful that they could kill the Divine Transformation Fifth Realm Peak Geng Yue with one strike, and possessing Super Martial Arts?
Thinking further, Su Xinming only grew more uneasy.
