"Brother Huang, please speak," Shen Luo's brows furrowed as he replied.
"According to the original plan for this trip to the secret realm, I was supposed to fight for the Human Race. If I could find the key to the secret realm and become the champion, it would greatly benefit the Human Race's situation in the Three Realms for the next hundred years …" Huang Yi said.
"Brother Huang wants me to take first place?" Shen Luo asked after a moment of hesitation.
"That's right."
"Brother Huang thinks too highly of me. Not to mention that I have no interest in this matter, even if I tried my best, I might not be able to do it." Shen Luo bitterly smiled in his mind.
"Shen Daoyou, listen to me first. Putting aside the righteousness of the Human Race, this matter is also beneficial to you." Huang Yi's tone was grave.
"Oh?" Shen Luo was puzzled.
"Shen Daoyou should know that the Shouyang Mountain Sect is not weak, and the Law Enforcement Hall has always been one of the strongest departments of the various sects. Zhao Tong's master has always been narrow-minded and protective. Even if he can't use the power of the sect to deal with you, he will still make other arrangements in secret. The Great Tang government can control the light, but not the dark," Huang Yi continued.
"What does this have to do with me winning the Martial Gathering?" Shen Luo asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Of course it has a lot to do with it. Shen Daoyou, think about it. If you can win this victory for the Human Race, allowing the Human Race to have the right to speak in the Three Realms for the next hundred years, you will have done a great service to the Human Race. At that time, no matter who wants to deal with you, they will have to carefully consider the consequences, "Huang Yi said.
Shen Luo's expression turned serious, and his mind began to rapidly fluctuate.
If he was alone, he naturally wouldn't care too much about the secret revenge of the Shouyang Mountain, but he still had the legacy of the Temple of Spring and Autumn behind him, so he couldn't ignore it.
"In addition, if Shen Daoyou can really do it, you will be giving face to the Grand Master," Huang Yi added.
When Shen Luo heard this, he once again fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he replied via voice transmission, "I can only give it a try. If it doesn't work, then I can only forget about it."
"That's good." Huang Yi nodded inwardly.
Less than half a day later, Shen Luo's injuries had mostly healed. He had also swallowed a large number of pills to replenish his lost blood essence.
"Shen Daoyou, what do you plan to do next?" Fu Donglai asked.
"I haven't decided yet. What about you?" Shen Luo didn't answer, but asked instead.
"I want to find the key as soon as possible and end this martial gathering." Fu Donglai frowned and said.
"Fellow Daoist Fu also wants to fight for first place in this Martial Gathering?" Shen Luo was a little surprised.
According to what Fu Donglai had said at the very beginning, he was participating in the trial on behalf of someone else, not on his own accord. Why would he suddenly be interested in fighting for first place?
"Shen Daoyou misunderstood. I don't care who is first in this Martial Gathering. I just want to end this Martial Gathering trial as soon as possible." Fu Donglai shook his head and said.
"Why is that?" Shen Luo was surprised.
"Shen Daoyou, this Martial Gathering trial, you must have seen a lot of fighting along the way. Originally, it was just a competition, so it didn't matter if you won or lost. But now, there is blood everywhere, and it's all about life and death, "Fu Donglai said.
"This … Before we entered the Mystic Realm, we already knew about this, didn't we?" Shen Luo pondered and said.
Before entering the Mystic Realm, everyone had already signed the life and death agreement. Saying this now would be somewhat pretentious and hypocritical.
"Brother Shen, do you know that our fighting in the Mystic Realm is being broadcasted to the Three Realms? Even now, who knows how many people are betting on our lives?" Fu Donglai continued.
Hearing this, Shen Luo felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Using his own life as a reason for others to joke and gamble made him feel a little disgusted.
As for the deeper considerations, Shen Luo didn't think too much about it.
"Since Fellow Daoist Fu wants to end this trial as soon as possible, I also want to try to find the key to the Mystic Realm. We can be considered to be on the same path, so we can go together." Shen Luo smiled and said.
"That's good." Fu Donglai smiled and nodded.
"Brother Huang, how are you? Do you want to go together?" Shen Luo turned and asked.
"I won't be going with you. I plan to stay here and recuperate." Huang Yi raised his broken arm and said with a smile.
After saying this, his eyes flashed slightly as he looked at Shen Luo with deep meaning.
Shen Luo knew that Huang Yi didn't want him to forget what he had told him earlier, so he nodded slightly.
After Shen Luo and Fu Donglai bade farewell to Huang Yi, they passed through a mountain and arrived at another forest.
The space in the Mystic Realm was much larger than they had expected. When they were crossing the mountain, they were attacked by a group of powerful Demonic Beasts.
However, Shen Luo and Fu Donglai didn't want to be entangled with them and hurriedly left.
"Brother Shen, did you feel anything strange in the Mystic Realm?" Fu Donglai asked as they hurried along.
"Why do you ask?" Shen Luo asked in surprise.
"It's nothing. I just don't know if it's an illusion, but when I was in the Mystic Realm, I smelled some Demonic Beast aura. However, it was very faint and didn't feel real." Fu Donglai frowned and said.
"Demonic Beast aura?" Shen Luo frowned.
"It's not much different from a Demonic Beast's aura, so it's easy to confuse it. Although the aura was faint, it made me feel uneasy. It's just that I haven't encountered it since then." Fu Donglai said.
"Now that you mention it, when I was traveling through the ground and recuperating underground, I also felt a very uncomfortable aura. However, when I tried to examine it carefully, I was unable to sense it. Thus, I could only give up on it," Shen Luo said.
"It's said that this Mystic Realm was originally a lonely place. After the Three Realms of Man, Demon, and Immortal were stabilized, the Three Realms worked together to bring it back. Then, after the Tianji City renovated it, it became the training ground of the Three Realms Martial Meet today." Fu Donglai said.
"I've heard that as well. The treasures that appear in the Mystic Realm are actually the Three Realms of Man, Demon, and Immortal as rewards. It's not strange that there are Demonic Beasts and Demonic Beasts in the Mystic Realm. They were most likely the ones who let them in," Shen Luo said.
"Ordinary Demonic Beasts and Demonic Beasts are fine. I'm just worried that some special Demonic Beasts have been let in. If that's the case, everyone will be in danger." Fu Donglai frowned, his tiger-like eyes filled with worry.
"It's fine. Let's hurry up and find the key to the Mystic Realm and end the training as soon as possible." Shen Luo smiled.
Fu Donglai nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he heard an explosion in front of them.
The two of them quickly stopped and carefully approached. They saw a young man in white holding a sharp sword, piercing through the chest of a burly man. The two of them were both humans, but it was obvious that they were fighting to the death.
