C1358 Guardian
"It makes your body stronger."
Zhou Yan's eyes flashed as he came to a sudden realization: "No wonder I always feel that I have infinite strength. So that's how it is."
"However, this kind of strength alone doesn't seem to be enough. I still need more Essence Qi to nourish my body!"
Zhou Yan let out a low shout and sat down cross-legged once again.
Boom!
A strand of majestic Essence Qi surged over and poured into his body.
In an instant, Zhou Yan felt that his physical strength had increased by quite a bit.
"What a powerful body!"
Zhou Yan opened his eyes and revealed a shocked expression.
"My current combat strength is probably comparable to that of an expert at the sixth level of the Innate Realm."
"As expected of the non-humans, they are indeed strong."
Zhou Yan was overwhelmed by emotions.
The non-humans were extremely talented, and they far surpassed cultivators of the same cultivation in every aspect.
However, he was not afraid at all.
Instead, he became excited.
"Let's go! We'll head to the edge of the Secret Realm."
" As long as we cross that river, we should be able to reach the outskirts of the Secret Realm. "
Zhou Yan's eyes burned as he stared into the distance. He jumped up and walked along the mountain stream.
Not long after, Zhou Yan successfully crossed the river.
"Hmm?"
However, when he stepped into the Secret Realm, his face stiffened and he stood there in a daze.
Because, in front of him, there was an incomparably huge beast statue.
This statue was ten meters tall and completely black, as if it was made of steel.
A terrifying and fierce aura radiated from it.
It was enough to make one tremble in fear.
"Roar!"
Suddenly, the statue roared as a thick claw slapped towards Zhou Yan.
With a "bang," the void trembled and ripples spread out.
With a "kacha" sound, Zhou Yan was sent flying by this palm strike. He crashed heavily into the stone wall, causing it to collapse and sink into the soil.
"Puff..."
As blood spurted out from his mouth, Zhou Yan spat out a mouthful of blood in a sorry state.
"Oh my god.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"What kind of existence is this? It's just a statue, yet it already possesses such a terrifying attack power?"
Zhou Yan's face turned pale as his mind trembled violently.
He raised his head and looked.
Immediately, his pupils contracted.
He saw the giant beast statue slowly moving and looking down at him from above.
"What a dense evil aura!"
Zhou Yan held his breath as he felt a chill run down his spine.
The giant beast statue did not seem to be alive, but dead.
However, the fiendish aura emitted from its body was even stronger than that of a living creature.
"I wonder what sort of secret is hidden here?"
Zhou Yan pondered for a moment before taking a step forward, preparing to approach and observe.
"* Roar! *"
Suddenly, the giant beast statue seemed to have sensed his actions and let out a roar.
"* Rumble! *"
In an instant, a monstrous black mist swept over and turned into a gigantic black hand that covered the sky, grabbing towards Zhou Yan.
This attack was as fast as lightning, and there was no way to dodge it.
"Bam!"
The giant beast statue grabbed Zhou Yan and firmly suppressed him.
"This is..."
Zhou Yan's expression changed drastically.
This giant beast statue was actually able to mobilize the power of heaven and earth and seal the void!
Such a method was simply shocking!
"It's over!"
Zhou Yan's expression changed drastically.
This giant beast statue definitely had the terrifying strength of the Eighth or Ninth Level of Qi Refinement.
How could he possibly be a match for it?
"How dare you!"
"A mere ant dares to offend me?"
However, at this moment, a forceful voice sounded.
In the next moment, the scene in front of Zhou Yan changed drastically.
The originally dark environment quickly disappeared.
In its place was a magnificent palace.
"What is this place?"
Zhou Yan looked around in confusion and shock.
He realized that this palace was extremely vast, as if it was a city.
Within the palace, countless experts had gathered.
A muscular man wearing a yellow robe stood on the highest platform, his aura shocking the heavens.
Next to him was a statue of a giant beast that seemed to be alive.
"Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly, the ground shook, and an explosion sounded from underground.
Suddenly, the earth began to quake and the earth began to rumble.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
"Kill all the non-humans in the world!"
As the army charged forward, they left behind a trail of corpses and blood.
One expert after another died, and their corpses were everywhere. It was a shocking sight.
"This...!"
Zhou Yan's eyes widened in shock.
"Could it be that this is the remains of a war left behind by the intense battle between the Human Clan and the non-humans?"
"Is this a clash between two races?"
His heart was filled with shock.
This situation was too rare.
One had to know that even in the Saint Country of the Human Clan, there were very few battles.
"This should be a Secret Realm of the non-humans."
"Furthermore, it's a high grade Secret Realm."
"Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to meet even experts at the Foundation Establishment stage."
Zhou Yan sighed in his heart.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, who would have dared to believe that there was such a Secret Realm in such a remote place like the Southern Ridge?
"Roar!"
Just as Zhou Yan was deep in thought, the statue roared towards the sky and bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it pounced towards Zhou Yan, wanting to devour him.2
"* Weng! * Zhou Yan felt a sharp pain in his mind.
In an instant, Zhou Yan felt the scene in front of him distort. When he recovered, he had already left the Secret Realm.
In front of him was a towering mountain.
An ancient tree was rooted here.
"Shua!"
With a flash, Zhou Yan climbed up the branch of the ancient tree and looked into the distance.
With a single glance, his entire body trembled in fear.
Within his vision, he could see ruins everywhere.
The corpses of the non-human experts piled up like mountains.
One of them was even a human puppet.
Its chest was shattered, and its stomach was caved in. It was obvious that it had received a critical blow.
However, the weird thing was that it was still alive.
However, its body was locked onto the ground and couldn't break free.
"How is this possible?"
Zhou Yan was shocked.
Although the injuries on the corpses of the non-humans were terrifying, they weren't fatal.
This human puppet's head had obviously been blown off, but it was still alive.
What kind of terrifying defense was this?
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Zhou Yan frowned as he discovered something strange.
On the body of this puppet, traces of blood-red light appeared. Like ripples on water, they gathered into runes.
These runes were like a spider web as they covered the entire body of the human puppet.
At the same time, under the effect of these symbols, the injuries on the body of the puppet started to heal.
"These symbols...."
Zhou Yan's heart turned serious as his eyes revealed a serious expression: "It seems to contain some sort of strange law."
"Perhaps these runes are the key to the intelligence of this puppet."
"No matter what, since I have discovered the secrets of this puppet, I must take it away!"
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan's eyes burned with passion.
