This made Li Chen much easier to deal with. After all, the magical beasts that attacked him were not all in groups. There were times when they couldn't beat them and they would flee in all directions.

Slowly, Li Chen had been in this unknown secret realm for half a month. Li Chen was counting the days that had passed, but he still hadn't found the way out. Furthermore, Li Chen felt that the deeper he went into the secret realm, the higher the cultivation level of the magical beasts and the rarer the spirit herbs.

After killing another Phantom Beast of the eighth step, Li Chen took the crystal core and placed it over the fire to roast.

It was already late, but there were no stars nor any moon in this secret plane night. There was only one sun, but it was an orange one that illuminated the world in its dim orange hue.

During the day, however, there were two suns. One was glowing golden, while the other was glowing like the sun in their world. However, when the two were combined, a scorching, refreshing feeling filled the air. It was extremely strange.

This was how Li Chen divided the day and night. Although the day was strange, the night would not get dark.

Eating that half-human-sized Phantom Beast, Li Chen was planning on how to go tomorrow. In this secret realm, there were dangers everywhere, but the temptation was also extremely great. The temptation and the danger existed at the same time, and in Li Chen's spatial ring, more and more seventh, eighth grade magical beasts' cores and rare spirit herbs were present.

There was no lack of magical beasts here and the same could be said about the dangers. Not only did he have to be wary of magical beasts of higher and higher ranks, he also had to be careful of plants that looked beautiful and harmless.

A few days later, when Li Chen was picking a stalk of thousand year spirit grass, his hand caught empty air. A few days later, when Li Chen was picking a stalk of thousand year spirit grass, his hand grabbed empty air.

There was a use for Li Chen to gather so many spiritual herbs. However, when he went to the Shen Nong Valley to find the Heartless Pill's antidote, he might be able to exchange some resources.

Currently, Black Phoenix had yet to awaken. He didn't know when she would be able to finish absorbing the ninth stage crystal core. With so many crystal cores in her spatial ring, she should be able to recover more than half of her previous strength.

After he made up his mind where he would leave from tomorrow, Li Chen sat cross-legged to rest.

In this secret realm, Li Chen did not dare to sleep. He could only meditate and adjust his mental state.

The next day, Li Chen headed towards the east. The secret realm was very big. Li Chen had tried to use his spiritual sense to explore the path, but it was as far as he could see.

Just as Li Chen picked a stalk of spirit grass, he heard the sound of fighting. After hesitating for a moment, he also looked for the sound and walked over.

From afar, he could see two people fighting each other. Their moves were fierce and fatal, and their cultivation was very high. Li Chen stood at the side, and after knowing that the black robed man had been killed, the victor also looked for something on the black clothed man's body before immediately leaving.

Before Li Chen could do anything, a purple figure flew out from the side. The figure looked like a woman and it was much more graceful. However, because she was wearing a veil, Li Chen could only see her heroic eyes.

The purple-clothed woman bent down and searched around the body of the black-clothed dead person. She was the same as the one who had escaped with injuries, leaving with nothing to show for it.

Was this woman and the wounded man looking for something? What was the identity of that man in black? Li Chen felt extremely puzzled.

After waiting for a long time, another youth appeared and sized up the corpse. After looking at it, he frowned and quickly left.

It was not until nightfall, when the orange sun rose from the west, that Li Chen saw no one else. He slowly walked toward the corpse in alarm.

Looking at the man's appearance, Li Chen did not know who he was and his body had already been flipped over. Li Chen casually looked and had no intention of leaving, but the moment Li Chen turned around, he saw a mark on the corpse's right hand.

Li Chen stopped and lifted up his black sleeve, revealing the mark. Two slender horns intersected with each other, and in the middle was a black lotus flower. This mark was very familiar.

Li Chen thought for a while and suddenly thought of something. He turned to the lotus in between his brows and asked, ”Little Lian, take a look. Do you want a sign on the Devil Realm's Gate?”

When Lil 'Lian heard the Devil Realm Gate, she immediately appeared between Li Chen's eyebrows. Lil' Lotus flew around the imprint and said, ”Master, master does look a bit similar, but there is less than half of the white lotus imprint. It's just like Lil 'Lian!”

Little Lian's tender voice rang out and even flew in a circle in front of Li Chen's eyes.

”It does not look like it.” But was the Bai Lian, who was missing half, related to the Devil Realm's Gate? Was this person an evil cultivator? However, he had interacted with evil cultivators before and did not realize that their right hands were so beautiful.

Since he couldn't figure it out, Li Chen couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore. He was just curious about the identity of this person and the actions of those two in the day, as if they were looking for something.

”Master, master, master, throw this person's chest aside, Little Lian found something inside.”
