Chapter 772: Entering the Secret Realm

The eyes of the crowd were all frozen stiff, staring fixedly at that vast and majestic palace. Imposing, magnificent, the palace radiated a brilliant, multicolored luster, as if an emperor's aura was blooming from within.

"Could it be a palace? Was this the residence of an emperor in life?"

The crowd thought to themselves, their gazes locked on the palace that had appeared. They saw a Bagua pattern covering the palace, as if it were suppressing it.

Dazzling beams of light shot out from the palace, stinging the eyes of the onlookers.

"Ah..."

A miserable scream suddenly rang out. Someone had tried to approach the vast palace. The moment he stood before it, his life force withered instantly, and he collapsed to the ground as a shriveled corpse, his body drained of all blood and qi, as if he had been sucked dry.

"Gulp!" Seeing this terrifying scene, many people swallowed their saliva, their eyes flashing with deep reverence. Many involuntarily stepped back, and in an instant, those who had been eager to move forward all came to a halt.

The palace's light, when it touched a person, was like the arrival of the God of Death, directly claiming that person's life.

"Before the passage is opened, no one is to approach. If you don't want to die, behave yourselves." A cold shout rang out. Those Heavenly Martial Realm experts were still unleashing their power, suppressing the eruption of the palace's strength. Their expressions were all extremely grave, and they thought to themselves, *It's time to show ourselves.*

"Boom!" At that moment, a figure shot into the sky, releasing a vast aura that was incredibly powerful and terrifying.

"Venerable!" The pupils of the crowd contracted sharply. So there was a Venerable in hiding. The moment the palace appeared, the Venerable also revealed himself.

"Boom, boom, boom..." One shocking aura after another burst forth. From every direction of the Bagua Destruction Array, figures emerged. Each of these figures was immensely powerful, exuding an unfathomable presence.

"Venerable."

"Senior."

Many people called out. Among those who appeared were their seniors, Venerable elders.

Every major force that had arrived had its own Venerable present. Dozens of powerful auras bloomed in the void, so strong they were beyond imagination.

From these Venerables, the power of Essence was being released.

"Ha!" These Venerables each unleashed powerful Essence. Snowflakes fell wildly, half the sky froze into ice, while the other half blazed like scorching sun, as if it were being boiled. The terrifying power of Will and Essence descended upon the palace at the same time. In that moment, the palace trembled violently, and even more terrifying light surged forth, the aura of Death Essence seeping out and heading toward the Venerables.

Countless beams of light shot toward the Venerables, carrying the aura of death, as if to claim their lives.

"Now! Open it!" At that moment, several people shouted simultaneously. Then, a terrifying sword light shot into the sky. In that instant, it seemed as if only the sword remained in all the world.

"Boom!" This sword pierced through space, instantly landing on the palace. A sound of annihilation rang out. The light of death seemed to be driven back by this sword, revealing a vast, golden gate within the palace.

"Chop!" The sword-wielding Venerable roared. The sword light flashed, penetrating everything, and struck the palace's gate, producing a cracking sound.

"Hurry, we don't have much time." Someone urged for speed. The power they were unleashing grew stronger and stronger, forming a Bagua pattern to restrain the palace, as if they were dealing not with a palace, but with a person.

The sword-wielder's gaze solidified. His aura climbed to its peak. In that moment, his entire figure became somewhat illusory, as if he were a sharp sword about to pierce the heavens.

"Break for me!" The man transformed into a beam of sword light. Then, a wave of annihilation energy spread out. The crowd saw a brilliant radiance shine forth. The palace's gate shattered with a sound. The Sword Venerable instantly shot back into the void, his aura fluctuating. He stared at the gate, a hint of a smile appearing on his face.

"Go in quickly. We can't hold on much longer." The Sword Venerable shouted sharply at the dazed crowd. This terrifying roar instantly woke them up, and then, one figure after another flickered madly, charging toward the opening.

"Let's go." Lin Feng took a step, also heading for the palace's opening. At this moment, the Venerables and Heavenly Martial Realm experts were all using their full strength to resist the palace's power, just to open this secret realm gate for them. They couldn't waste time.

Jun Moxi and the others followed closely behind Lin Feng. Their figures turned into afterimages, disappearing in an instant, squeezing through the gate of the vast palace.

"All of you, get the hell out of my way!" At that moment, a terrifying Will power erupted among the crowd. In an instant, everyone nearby was thrown aside. The man's aura was extremely frightening.

"Heavenly Martial Realm." Many people were blocked by this man, but he wore a mad expression on his face as he charged toward the entrance.

Many figures in the void cast a disdainful glance in his direction, their eyes filled with sarcasm and deep contempt. Their gazes were as if they were looking at a dead man.

If a Heavenly Martial Realm expert could enter the secret realm, would it still be his turn?

This man, clinging to a fluke, tried to rush into the secret realm while the Venerables and Heavenly Martial Realm experts were restraining the palace. He completely ignored the information that Heavenly Martial Realm experts and above could not enter the secret realm, always thinking he was clever.

When he charged into the palace's gate, a brilliant beam of light shone upon him. In an instant, a Death Essence technique activated. The man looked up, and the light fell, vanishing along with his body.

"Foolish." Many in the void shouted coldly. Throughout the ages, this secret realm palace possessed a terrifying death power, especially that gate, which even had a selective death power. As long as your cultivation was above the Heavenly Martial Realm, the moment you tried to step inside, it would trigger the death light, instantly reducing you to ashes.

On the other hand, Mysterious Martial Realm cultivators did not trigger that death aura when they rushed in. More and more people surged through the gate, and then, as if falling into endless darkness, there was no more sound.

Lin Feng's speed was extremely fast. He unleashed his Wind Will, his body moving like a gentle breeze. In an instant, he reached the palace gate. He turned back to look at Jun Moxi and the others, saying, "Let's go in."

With that, Lin Feng took a step and entered that gate of death.

The dazzling beam of light vanished without a trace in an instant. Lin Feng only felt that his vision had suddenly become pitch black, giving him an unreal feeling.

Just moments ago, it had been so bright and brilliant. In an instant, it was a completely different world, stepping into darkness.

"Thump, thump, thump..." Lin Feng could almost feel the heartbeat of others. With his current cultivation, seeing in the dark should have been a trivial matter. But now, he could see nothing, only endless blackness. He didn't know where he was. He only knew that there were people around him, many people. They were probably all like him, unable to see, and none dared to act rashly.

The contrast was too strong. Outside, the light had been so dazzling, and everyone had scrambled to enter the palace gate. But the moment they stepped inside, they were plunged into endless darkness. The crowd instinctively fell into absolute silence, none daring to make a move. No one knew if the person beside them was friend or foe.

"Lin Feng." A voice suddenly rang out in the darkness. It was Tang Youyou's voice.

"Boom!" A terrifying destructive force erupted, blasting toward the direction of the voice, incredibly fast.

Tang Youyou felt this terrifying palm force, and her gaze instantly froze. Before she could react, she was hit by the attack.

"Boom!"

This terrifying palm strike landed on a body. A cold smile came from the darkness. Someone actually dared to speak? Wasn't that asking for death?

The palm force twisted. The figure in the darkness revealed a cruel smile. But at that moment, his smile suddenly froze, because a pair of thick, powerful arms had directly clamped onto his head.

"You're seeking death." An icy voice rang out in the darkness. Then, a cracking sound was heard—the sound of a skull being dislocated. In the dark world, a chilling coldness began to spread!

It turned out that the person the attacker had struck was not the woman who had spoken. It was the voice of a young man!
