However, this Flying Head also belonged to Shi Chuan, so it would be inconvenient to reveal it in front of others.
As Liu Ming thought about it, he used his consciousness to communicate with the Flying Head. After giving a few simple instructions, he patted the leather pouch at his waist.
Immediately, a black cloud rolled out and sucked the Flying Head into it.
Although the Soul-nurturing Pouch was normally used to store ghosts, it could also allow the Flying Head to temporarily stay in it.
Once he left, he would find a special pouch that was used to cultivate Demonic Creatures, and this matter would be easily resolved.
Liu Ming sat cross-legged in the tree hole and rested for a while. When he felt that there were no longer any problems with his body, he stood up unhurriedly and walked out.
There were only a few days left until the secret realm's entrance closed, so he didn't dare to delay any longer. His body floated up the tree and shot off into the distance like an arrow.
Because he didn't need to pay attention to any Spirit Creatures on his way back, his speed was naturally different from when he first came.
Of course, in order to be careful of possible ambushes, he naturally couldn't travel at full speed.
But just like that, he only spent a day to traverse a large portion of the forest. Unexpectedly, the entire journey was safe and sound, and there were no incidents of anyone ambushing or intercepting him.
At first, Liu Ming felt that it was a little strange, but after thinking about it carefully, he came to a realization.
Right now, it was very different from two days ago. Seeing that the deadline was approaching, most of the remaining disciples had probably gathered near the secret realm's entrance.
Naturally, under normal circumstances, there wouldn't be anyone ambushing others.
He just didn't know what the situation was like on the other side. Were the disciples of the various sects fighting each other, or were they mutually wary of each other and maintaining a balanced situation?
Just as Liu Ming was thinking, suddenly, a loud rumbling sound came from a certain direction. It was as if there was an enormous creature that was rushing toward him at lightning speed.
Liu Ming was slightly startled, and his body naturally stopped on the tree branch. His eyes narrowed as he looked toward the source of the sound.
He saw that a large tree had suddenly been pushed to the side, and from behind it, a huge black ape puppet that was thirty feet tall rushed out. After a few shakes, it suddenly stopped below the tree that Liu Ming was on.
Then, a surprised voice sounded from within the giant ape's body!
"Junior Bai, it's you. What a coincidence!"
"So it's Brother Tie!" Liu Ming looked at the familiar giant puppet and replied with a smile.
Right at this moment, a square window suddenly appeared on the abdomen of the giant ape puppet, and a round male face was revealed.
It was the Nine Enchantment Sect disciple, Tie Yue, whom he had first met after entering the central region of the secret realm.
"Haha, I knew that with Junior Bai's quick-wittedness, there wouldn't be any problems in the center of the secret realm. Sure enough, he was safe and sound. Seeing that Junior Brother Bai is also planning to go to the exit, why don't we go together? Perhaps something would happen in the following journey. We can also help each other a little. "Tie Yue suddenly said with a serious expression.
"Alright! Since our sects have already formed an alliance, it will be safer for us to travel together. "Liu Ming quickly thought about it and agreed without any hesitation.
"Great. With Junior Bai accompanying me, I won't have to hide in this big guy's body to travel. " Hearing this, the round-faced young man was overjoyed. He immediately used some unknown method to make a tunnel split open in the abdomen of the puppet and slid out.
"What, did Brother Tie always use this puppet to travel?" Hearing this, Liu Ming couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
One has to know that even though he had never learned puppet techniques, he knew that constantly controlling a puppet would definitely consume Fa Li and Mental Energy, let alone such a large puppet.
"That is indeed the case. Ever since I was ambushed by a Hall of Blood disciple in the forest, I felt that staying in this big guy's body would be safer. However, this guy is too cumbersome. After traveling for such a long time in one go, even I can't take it anymore. "Tie Yue sighed and said with a face full of helplessness.
"So that's how it is. Looks like Brother Tie's Mental Energy is strong. I'm afraid that even among your sect's disciples of the same generation, you are one of the best." Hearing this, Liu Ming replied thoughtfully.
"Hehe, I had a few fortuitous encounters in my early years, which is why I have my current Mental Energy. However, if we were to really talk about rankings, within the Nine Enchantment Sect's Spirit Apostles, I can only be ranked third. "Tie Yue laughed as he replied.
"Third? But the other two are … "Hearing this, Liu Ming's expression changed slightly.
Because of his talent in doing two things at once, his Mental Energy was naturally more than double that of a normal Spirit Apostle. However, if compared to the other person, he was probably still lacking. Now that he heard Tie Yue say that there were two other people in the Nine Enchantment Sect whose Mental Energy was even higher than his, his heart naturally shivered.
"One of the two people is naturally Senior Yun. Back then, when Senior Brother Yun chose to cultivate his cultivation method, other than his main cultivation method, he also cultivated a high-level cultivation method from the sect that could strengthen one's mental strength. Every time he cultivated a layer, it would greatly increase his mental strength. Unfortunately, the requirements to cultivate this Cultivation Method are extremely harsh. Adding up everyone in the sect, there are probably only two or three people who barely have the conditions to cultivate this Cultivation Method. As for the other person, his identity is a bit special, so I can't tell you. "Tie Yue replied with a smile.
"Senior Yun, I also met him at the center of the Secret Realm, but I didn't see that his Mental Energy was this strong." Liu Ming's eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"Senior Yun prefers Body Refining Techniques. Anyone who sees the way he fights with others will unconsciously overlook the strength of his Mental Energy." Tie Yue replied with a smile.
"That is indeed the case." Liu Ming nodded his head, obviously agreeing with this statement.
At this time, Tie Yue made a hand sign with one hand and had already turned the Giant Ape Puppet into a black ball. He then put it away and released a seemingly light Mantis Puppet. With a sway, he rode on top of it.
Liu Ming looked at the familiar looking Mantis Puppet and after conversing with Tie Yue for a bit, the two of them continued on their way.
One was still jumping between the branches like a ghost, while the other was flying on the ground.
… …
A day later, in the underground cave outside of the Secret Realm, six Crystal Level experts were still sitting cross-legged on the stone platform, silently activating the tools in front of them to maintain the stability of the Secret Realm's entrance.
However, the other Liquid Level experts nervously looked at the faintly flashing white ball of light in the air from time to time.
Calculating the time, today was almost the last day of the agreed deadline. However, up until now, not a single disciple had walked out. This naturally caused a majority of the people in the cave to feel a bit uneasy.
After another hour, the seemingly calm white ball of light suddenly began to flash violently. At the same time, there was a faint rumbling sound coming from within.
"Someone is coming out!" It was unknown who said it with surprise. Everyone's gaze "swished" as they all stared at the white ball of light.
A few of the Crystal Level experts who originally had their eyes closed also instantly opened their eyes.
A burst of five-colored light swept forth, and six humanoid figures appeared on the ground nearby at the same time.
After everyone's gaze swept over, they discovered that these six people were the disciples who had entered the Secret Realm before. Furthermore, each sect had at least one person among them.
Everyone couldn't help but have different expressions.
"Hui Niang, what's going on? Could it be that everyone has gathered over there? Roughly how many people are there?" The Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader couldn't help but take a step forward and hurriedly asked one of the girls.
"Reporting to Sect Leader Martial Uncle, the remaining people have indeed gathered together. There are about twenty-five or twenty-six people." Qian Hui Niang hurriedly bowed and replied.
"Twenty or so people, so only a small half of them have returned. This is only a natural Secret Realm. How could so many people have died? "When the Firestorm Way Leader heard this, his expression couldn't help but change slightly.
"This Secret Realm doesn't seem to be purely a natural Secret Realm. We encountered some accidents inside." Qian Hui Niang hesitated for a moment before replying honestly.
"Accidents?"
These words caused the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader and the others to frown slightly.
However, in the following time, the higher ups of the other sects simply called the disciples of each sect in front of them and asked them about some matters that they were concerned about.
The results were naturally both happy and sad.
When the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader found out that Lei Zhen, Feng Chan, and the others had all gone missing, his expression naturally became somewhat gloomy. However, when he heard that Gao Chong was fine and that half of the people had survived, his expression became slightly happy again.
Just at this time, the white ball of light in the sky once again emitted a rumbling sound. Shockingly, there were more disciples being transported out from within.
… …
When Liu Ming opened his eyes and woke up from his dizziness, he discovered that he had once again appeared in the huge cave where he had left from.
As for the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader, Daoist Priest Zhang, and the other higher ups of the various sects, they were divided into groups. In front of them were the disciples of the various sects that had been transported out. Moreover, their expressions were extremely serious.
After a slight hesitation, Liu Ming walked with large strides towards where the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader was.
Two days ago, when he and Tie Yue had rushed to the vicinity of the Secret Realm's entrance, the situation there was unexpectedly calm.
The disciples of the various sects had actually gathered together as early as one or two days ago and had simultaneously set up camp near the entrance of the Secret Realm.
Because of this, the disciples of the various sects, under the fear, had instead set up a temporary agreement that no one was allowed to make a move near the entrance. Otherwise, the other sects would all make a move together to punish them.
Just like this, Liu Ming and Tie Yue easily returned to their own group. After waiting until the last day, when no one else had returned, the various sects had each sent a disciple back together.
The entire process was unexpectedly abnormally smooth and there was not the slightest bit of trouble.
At this time, after Liu Ming walked over, he greeted the Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader and Daoist Priest Zhang before respectfully standing to the side with his hands behind his back.
Beside him, Yang Gan and Qian Hui Niang impressively already stood there.
"Very good, you have all done well. For you to be able to safely return from the Secret Realm is already considered to have done a great service for our sect. This time, our sect being able to have five people survive is already much better than the other Sects. "The Barbarian Ghost Sect Leader first nodded at Liu Ming before revealing a trace of a smile and speaking to everyone.
