Kaboom!
The world quaked.
In the Realm of the Womb, all the cultivators were affected by the tremor and woke up from their cultivation state.
Jiang He woke up with a start as well.
Unlike the others, however, he woke up from his sleep with a start.
Rubbing his bleary eyes, Jiang He rose from his soft bed and walked to the window to look up at the skies, only to find a rift opening in the distant horizon.
"Hmmm …"
"The Secret Realm's passageway is open?"
Jiang He yawned and stepped out of his mansion. With a wave of his hand, the luxurious mansion turned back into a capsule.
Putting it away, he left the canyon and climbed up a mountain.
"Eh?"
"Jiang He!"
Nearby, Cheng Dongfeng was waving in delight and darting toward him, all smiles as he asked, "How was your cultivation in the Secret Realm, Jiang He?"
"It was alright."
Jiang He replied nonchalantly, thinking that he was not cultivating at all. Glancing at Cheng Dongfeng, he frowned and could not help asking, "Why aren't you rank-eight yet?"
The smile on Cheng Dongfeng's face stiffened.
At first, he had been excited.
After all, he was rank-seven novice pinnacle when he entered the Secret Realm, and was now rank-seven pinnacle in just seven days, just one step away from rank-eight.
Most importantly, Cheng Dongfeng could see how that 'foot' should land after seven days of cultivation, and he was confident that he could ascend up to rank-eight in a month after leaving the Secret Realm.
And yet …
Jiang He's words left his mood plummeting to the bottom of the abyss.
"By the way, I didn't see any Diamond Sect disciples in the Womb Realm." Cheng Dongfeng had no choice but to change the topic. "When I first came in, I was afraid that the King Kong Sect disciples would deliberately cause trouble and disturb our cultivation. It looks like I was gauging the heart of a gentleman with my own mean measure. I didn't expect the King Kong Sect disciples to have such a good character."
Jiang He was about to explain when he saw a Buddha light descending from the skies. It was the head monk of the Diamond Sect who had personally entered the Secret Realm to receive Jiang He.
"Mister Jiang He, how's the harvest this time?"
The head monk asked with a smile as he waved his hand, and a unique energy engulfed both Jiang He and Cheng Dongfeng.
A little speechless, Jiang He grumbled, "Head monk, the design of your Diamond Sect's Secret Realm is a little unreasonable. There's no way to leave until seven days have passed, and wouldn't it be a delay if the people who enter have urgent family matters or are sick and need urgent treatment?"
The head monk was speechless.
The home of a disciple of the Vajra Sect is the Vajra Sect. What urgent matter could there be at home?
As for a very serious illness …
All the Vajra Sect disciples who had the qualifications to enter the Womb Realm were at least Rank-Seven and as high as the Origin Energy Realm. Each and every one of them was full of vigor, so how could they possibly fall sick?
He turned towards Jiang He and asked in surprise, "Could there be an emergency at home, Mister Jiang?"
"Haha!"
Jiang He chuckled and answered truthfully, "It's nothing much. I'm just bored inside, so I wanted to go out for a walk."
Boring …
This was too much.
When others entered the Mystic Realm, they would treat one day as if it were eight days of cultivation.
You ran in here and yelled that you were bored?
But how could the head monk say something like that?
Hence, he led Jiang He and Cheng Dongfeng out of the Mystic Realm. That was when River White Nima flew out of the Mystic Realm as well.
Aside from River White Nima, several divine-conversion tier disciples of the Vajra Sect who had entered the Womb Realm flew out as well, leading the other disciples out.
"Eh?"
Suddenly, the head monk's gaze shifted towards the many Vajra Sect disciples.
All of them had bruises all over their faces and looked miserable … of course, that was not a problem. Still, River White Nima was the most heavily injured.
While River White Nima's external injuries had completely healed, his broken rib had yet to be reconnected. Still, the head monk's vision allowed him to see the situation at a glance.
He did not ask, and merely turned to look at Jiang He.
Jiang He did not seem to notice, and instead jogged to River White Nima the instant he saw him, smiling, "You're out too, Master Nima?"
"Well …"
"Which master of your Vajra Sect has cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna up to the thirteenth-tier? Could you introduce me to him? I can feel that my physique has reached a bottleneck, and I need to spar with a stronger physique refiner if I want to improve further."
River White Nima scowled and said, "Mister Jiang He, my master had cultivated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna up to Mastery over four hundred years ago, just as the head monk had cultivated it up to Mastery."
"Moreover, Brother Corban, the Iron Staff Lama of the Vajra Sect, is not far off even if he had not cultivated it up to Mastery."
"Just three?"
Jiang He could not help complaining. "Forget it. Corban has Bao Zheng's face and carries an iron staff all day, so I'm not interested in challenging him. As for the head monk and your master … they're already half-buried in the ground. What if I can't hold back and kill them?"
It was midnight outside.
When Chen Jingzhou and the others came out, Jiang He went up to them and said, "Old Chen, I won't be traveling with you on the way back."
"What is it?"
Chen Jingzhou's face twitched, and he quickly asked, "Did something happen, Jiang He?"
Jiang He thought about it …
Now that the Orirocks were in place, all that was left to kill the Golden-Winged Roc was the process of 'farming'. There was nothing to hide, and there was no need to pretend — it was time to lay his cards on the table!
Hence, he said, "It's fine to tell you since it's not that big a deal. You know, didn't I make time to go to Mount Tian when you were having your barbecue at Lake Kanas?"
"I had a grudge against the Golden-Crowned Black Eagle of Mount Tian, so I went to seek revenge. It was only after I killed it that I learned that the beast was the Golden-Winged Roc's mistress … and it even laid two eggs for the Golden-Winged Roc."
"What?"
Chen Jingzhou could not help exclaiming. "You killed the Golden-Crowned Black Eagle?"
Jiang He had been whispering at first.
Chen Jingzhou's exclamation immediately drew everyone's attention, especially the Vajra Sect disciples, who all appeared surprised.
"Yeah."
Jiang He flashed a pained smile. "Killing the Golden-Crowned Black Eagle isn't much, since according to what I know, the Golden-Winged Roc had another mistress, the Violet-Crowned Golden Eagle of Mount Kunlun …"
"But I was unlucky!"
"After I killed the Golden-Crowned Black Eagle, the Violet-Crowned Golden Eagle coincidentally came to Mount Tian for a visit. To prevent the Golden-Winged Roc from hearing about it immediately and leading the Feral Emperor to trouble me, I killed the Violet-Crowned Golden Eagle as well."
"…"
The scene turned silent at once.
Chen Jingzhou opened his mouth, only to find that his throat was parched and he could not say a word.
Nearby, River White Nima had a weird look on his face.
Was that for real?
Though the Vajra Sect had sealed themselves off from the world for almost a hundred years, they were not completely unaware of the outside world. At the very least, he knew about the Violet-Crowned Golden Eagle and the Golden-Crowned Black Eagle, and neither of those two frightening Feral Kings would lose out to him in ability.
Touching his broken ribs, River White Nima wiped the beads of sweat off his forehead. It was fortunate that he did not unleash his divine-tempest cultivation to spar with Jiang He …
Otherwise, he would have broken more than one rib.
