Jun Xiaoyao looked at Ji Xuan as if he was looking at meat on a chopping block.
Ji Xuan's gaze also fell on Jun Xiaoyao, with a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
Jun Xiaoyao was enveloped in an immortal glow and mist, making him appear indistinct.
But that hazy feeling made Ji Xuan even more wary.
Afterward, his gaze shifted to Jun Zhangjian beside him, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Ji Xuan couldn't guarantee how he would fare against Jun Xiaoyao.
However, he was confident when it came to Jun Zhangjian, Jun Xuehuang, and the others.
"I really want to press Ji Xuan into the ground and rub him!"
Seeing the faint playful smirk on Ji Xuan's lips, Jun Zhangjian's face was shrouded in gloom.
This guy didn't dare to provoke Jun Xiaoyao, so he turned to provoke him instead.
"Calm down, let's talk about it when we reach the Supreme Secret Treasure," Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
If Ji Xuan had been more obedient, Jun Xiaoyao might have only taken his Opportunity and not done anything to him.
But if Ji Xuan insisted on jumping around in front of him, Jun Xiaoyao would have no choice but to teach him a lesson.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao and the others delved deeper into the Taihuang Forest.
Naturally, those at the forefront were the top Prodigies from their Immortal Dao Lineages.
Following them were the Prodigies from top Dao Lineages and first-rate forces.
The Chief Disciple of the Daojitian Sect also set off, but he closely followed Jun Xiaoyao and the others.
This was because earlier, an Elder from the Daojitian Sect had warned him that the safest way to avoid trouble was to stay by the Jun Family Divine Child's side.
Roar!
A Ghost-Faced Humanoid Bear, tainted by gray mist, roared with its head raised.
It stood upright, three zhang tall, like a small black mountain, exuding a menacing Evil Qi.
Its bear paws extended, directly crushing several Divine Bridge Realm Disciples from powerful forces into meat paste.
But in an instant, a magnificent golden Dharma Power palm print struck from the front.
With a thunderous roar, this powerful Ghost-Faced Humanoid Bear also turned into a meat paste.
Jun Xiaoyao calmly withdrew his hand and said, "Continue forward."
Jun Zhangjian and the others were fine, as they already knew of Jun Xiaoyao's strength.
However, the Chief Disciple of the Daojitian Sect, who was following behind, secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his eyes filled with shock.
"As expected of the Jun Family Divine Child, he killed the Ghost-Faced Humanoid Bear, which is difficult for ordinary Divine Bridge Realm Cultivators to deal with, with a single palm strike," the Chief Disciple exclaimed.
Of course, it wasn't just Jun Xiaoyao's decisive methods.
It was the same for Ji Xuan.
He also made his move casually, with sacred runes imprinted on his right arm, radiating divine light.
With a casual push of his palm or a flick of his finger, streaks of light shot out, directly tearing apart the fierce Yao Beast in front of him, effortlessly.
"The Ji Family's Little Sage also possesses an invincible demeanor, capable of suppressing powerful Vicious Beasts with every move."
"Of course, Ji Xuan's right arm has a section of a Saint King's hand bone integrated into it, so he doesn't even need to enhance his martial arts Divine Abilities; a casual palm strike has astonishing power."
Many Geniuses from first-rate forces sighed with emotion.
Prodigies born into Immortal Dao Lineages truly had different treatment; they could even integrate a Saint King's hand bone.
Of course, in addition to these Immortal Dao Lineage Prodigies,
Some astonishing dark horses also appeared.
"Oh, who is that cloaked figure? Their strength is astonishingly powerful!"
Some Cultivators also noticed a figure wearing a cloak and a hood.
He did not reveal his true appearance, but with a casual punch, Azure Dragon light patterns surged, easily shattering the Vicious Beast in front of him.
This surprised many people, as they didn't expect such a dark horse to appear.
"Tsk tsk, the leeks have indeed appeared. It seems they've grown well and are thriving, not disappointing me at all…"
Here, Jun Xiaoyao felt something and noticed the cloaked figure out of the corner of his eye.
He immediately knew that it was Xiao Chen.
But Jun Xiaoyao made no move.
He knew that Xiao Chen wanted to hide his identity, avoid being discovered by him, then pretend to be a pig to eat a tiger, gain Opportunities in the Secret Realm, and finally increase his strength dramatically to defeat him.
However…
The ideal was grand, but reality was harsh.
Xiao Chen thought he was on the second floor, and Jun Xiaoyao was on the first floor.
Little did he know, Jun Xiaoyao was already on the fifth floor.
The entire situation was under Jun Xiaoyao's control.
"Xiao Chen, I'll give you one last chance for your delusion. When it's time to cut the leeks, don't say I didn't give you any face."
A faint curve appeared at the corner of Jun Xiaoyao's lips.
Here, beneath the hood, Xiao Chen's face was resolute, with a hint of excitement.
His chance to rise was finally coming.
"Jun Xiaoyao, once I integrate the ancient Dragon Bone and Cultivate the Azure Heavens Transforming Dragon Art to Major Achievement, I will step on you in front of everyone!"
The battle continued.
The Cultivators who had entered the Taihuang Forest engaged in a bloody struggle with the Yao Beasts within the Taihuang Forest.
Except for a few individuals like Jun Xiaoyao who could push through unimpeded,
The Prodigies from other major forces and some Loose Cultivators suffered heavy casualties.
"We are simply not on the same level as the inheritors of those Immortal Dao Lineages."
A Loose Cultivator said bitterly, looking at the transcendent figures who had already delved deep into the forest, sighing endlessly.
Jun Xiaoyao was like a White-Robed Divine King, possessing an invincible aura. All Yao Beasts could not withstand more than two or three moves in front of him.
Before long, Jun Xiaoyao and the others were the first to reach the deepest part of the Taihuang Forest.
Looking around, a huge dark crack lay across the depths of the forest, like a wound on the earth.
Eerie gray mist emanated from it.
Jun Zhangjian and the others protected themselves with Dharma Power to isolate the gray mist.
However, this consumed a great deal of energy.
Moreover, they vaguely felt a sense of suppression within the gray mist.
But Jun Xiaoyao was different; he didn't use Dharma Power to protect himself at all.
Because he possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, which was extremely rigid and pure Yang, impervious to all evil. Even his blood was golden.
The Qi and Blood Physique of the Sacred Body had extremely strong resistance against various evil spirits and Yin Qi.
"It seems that the Supreme Secret Treasure is beneath this great earth rift, but it seems to have undergone some strange changes," Jun Xiaoyao murmured.
Just as he finished speaking,
Another roar came.
A terrifying black ape, completely black, with a single horn on its head and fleshy wings on its back, leaped over, collapsing a cliff dozens of zhang high with a single kick.
"It's an Ancient Remnants, the Demon Ape!"
Some Cultivators who had ventured deep into the area couldn't help but exclaim.
Ancient Remnants possessed a trace of Bloodline passed down from the ancient times, and their strength was far greater than that of ordinary Yao Beasts.
And this Demon Ape, with its monstrous Evil Qi, had already reached the Guiyi Realm.
Moreover, at the same Realm, Ancient Remnants were stronger than humans.
Even a Guiyi Realm Prodigy from an Immortal Dao Lineage would find it difficult to deal with this Demon Ape.
And most importantly, Jun Xiaoyao's current Realm was only at the Divine Bridge Realm.
Roar!
The Ancient Remnants Demon Ape let out a roar.
After being contaminated by the gray mist, its ape eyes were blood-red, and its already irritable temper seemed to have gone berserk as it charged towards Jun Xiaoyao.
It crashed through several mountain ridges along the way.
Everyone's eyes were tightly focused.
And in the Void Realm above the Taihuang Forest,
The Sky-Gazing Mirror also reflected the scene outside the Supreme Secret Treasure.
"Your Jun Family Divine Child might be in trouble," Elder Ji Bangyin of the Ji Family said with a slight smile.
