"Congratulations to the challenger for passing the second level. Please proceed to the third level."
It was still the same stiff and dull voice. After hearing this sentence, Yang Li directly stepped into the stone door. At the same time, his heart was filled with fantasies. The first level was to improve his physical fitness, the second level was to improve his spiritual power, then the third level was most likely to improve his divine sense!
With such a hopeful attitude, Yang Li walked through the stone door, but the scene behind the door made him a little disappointed. There were no sculptures behind the door, only a simple path.
"I was a bit too greedy. My Ling Qi and body can be changed through external objects, but how can my Divine Sense be changed through external objects?" Yang Li laughed self-mockingly. Then, he resolutely walked along the path.
This time, there were no sculptures on the path, but it was a little dark. However, Yang Li himself was a fire attribute cultivator, so he was not troubled by the darkness. A mass of spiritual power leaped from his hand, illuminating the entire path.
Soon, Yang Li walked to the end of the path, and nothing happened. The strange silence made Yang Li feel extremely uncomfortable.
The end this time was different from the previous two paths. When Yang Li walked to the end, the stone door at the end opened.
"It seems that this path won't give me any benefits, sigh." Yang Li silently sighed, slightly disappointed, but he still stepped through the stone door without hesitation.
"Hm?" After stepping through the stone door, Yang Li immediately squinted his eyes. In the past, the three paths were a little dark, but the light above the square was extremely dazzling, causing Yang Li to unconsciously squint his eyes.
Not long after, Yang Li slowly recovered and carefully looked at the entire square. At the top of the square was a dazzling golden ball, at the same time, it gave people a lazy feeling. Below it were pillars that went straight to the top. The pillars were all carved with dragons and phoenixes, emitting fluctuations that made people's hearts palpitate.
In the middle of the square was a creature sculpture with a dragon's head and a turtle's body. It was completely black, and its eyes were tightly closed. Its body emitted a faint fluctuation, giving people a sense of familiarity and unconsciously making people feel good about it.
There were eight stone doors around the square. At that moment, Yang Li was standing in front of one of the stone doors. There were people standing in front of the other stone doors. There were men and women standing in front of the other stone doors. Looking at their clothes, it was obvious that they were not from the Southern Fire Region. This made Yang Li very vigilant.
When those people saw Yang Li appear, they all smiled. One of them even said, "Brother Zhou's divination skills are really amazing. Someone actually came within a month."
Hearing this, Yang Li looked at the person who spoke. He saw that the person had fiery red hair and was extremely handsome. However, his eyes were extremely evil, giving people a feeling of danger. He wore a fiery red robe with a large "Fire" character embroidered on his chest.
Furthermore, this person was from the Huo Clan. This made Yang Li frown slightly. According to what he knew, only the Huo Clan in the Southern Fire Region dared to embroider the word "Fire" on their chest.
Yang Li and the Huo Clan didn't get along well. It could even be said that they had a life and death feud. Now that he had encountered someone from the Huo Clan, he couldn't help but increase his vigilance and a sense of danger rose in his heart.
At that moment, a woman spoke. This woman wore a blue robe with a vigorous ancient tree embroidered on her chest. Her well-developed breasts propped it up high, making her seem extremely alluring.
Her fine black hair flowed down her dress all the way to her waist. Her thin eyebrows crossed over her large eyes. Her fine nose and small mouth, as well as her fair skin, gave people a feeling of gentleness and beauty.
"Young master, how are you? My name is Sun Yu, and I come from the Southern Water Region's Sun Clan. How should I address you?" Sun Yu's voice was like an empty valley. It was extremely clear and bright, yet it gave off a gentle feeling.
Yang Li looked in the direction of the voice and discovered that Sun Yu was staring at him. He coldly said, "Southern Fire Region, Li Yue."
Yang Li wasn't familiar with these people. Adding on to the fact that his enemies were present, it was naturally impossible for Yang Li to reveal his real name. He casually said a few words and didn't say anything else.
Sun Yu didn't think too much about it. Just when he was about to speak, another woman spoke.
This woman's appearance was extremely ordinary. However, the Spiritual Energy fluctuations emitted from her body were extremely powerful. Her cultivation was at the Spirit Controlling stage eighth level. Furthermore, she looked to be around twenty-five or twenty-six years old. This cultivation had already surpassed the five great geniuses of the Southern Fire Region.
"Tell me about your cultivation. If your cultivation isn't enough, then once you exit the array, you will be directly kicked out of the Black Tortoise Secret Realm." The woman's tone was cold and domineering, causing the others to frown slightly.
The woman seemed to sense their displeasure. She calmly said, "If you want to share the treasures with someone who isn't qualified, then I don't mind."
When the others heard this, they pondered for a moment. They wanted to say something, but they stopped and looked at Yang Li, waiting to see what he would say.
"You're not qualified to know my cultivation." Yang Li calmly said. Ever since he started cultivating, there wasn't anyone who dared to order him around unless he was willing. This woman wasn't related to him at all, yet she dared to order him around. This made him feel extremely displeased!
The woman's eyes instantly turned cold. Even her voice grew cold. "Looks like you don't want to stay in this secret realm anymore!"
Yang Li disdainfully glanced at her and ignored her.
The others In The Field also didn't expect Yang Li to speak to the woman in such a manner. Their eyes revealed a strange feeling. The way they looked at Yang Li also became extremely strange.
At this moment, a man wearing an Eight Trigrams Daoist robe spoke. "Don't bother with words. Let's leave this array first."
The man didn't reveal his cultivation, so the others didn't know about it. However, the man's divination technique was extremely mysterious and accurate. The reason why they knew of Yang Li's arrival was all thanks to his divination.
If it wasn't for this man, they would've lost all hope long ago. Among them, the first to arrive here, had been trapped here for a year!
The man's gaze was calm as he looked towards Yang Li. "The Black Tortoise Secret Realm is a secret realm that stretches across the Central Region, Western Region, and Southern Region. This secret realm is only attractive to cultivators below the Harmonious God Realm."
"The Black Tortoise Secret Realm can improve our physique, spiritual energy, and divine sense!"
"The first two trials are relatively easy. Those with slightly stronger willpower can pass. However, the third trial is the most painful one."
"The Black Tortoise Secret Realm opens once every ten years. Even if you pass the first two trials, you can't enter the third trial unless you gather five people. Otherwise, no matter what method you use, you won't be able to enter the third trial."
Yang Li calmly listened to Zhou Li's words. It could be said that he had gained some understanding of the secret realm. Zhou Li continued to speak.
"My name is Zhou Li, from the Central Region's Zhou Family. I've been trapped here for more than three months. Spirit Controlling Realm eighth level."
Zhou Li then pointed towards Huo Qing. "His name is Huo Qing, from the Forest Bird Region's Huo Family. He's been trapped here for more than eight months. Spirit Controlling Realm seventh level."
"You already know Sun Yu. He's from the Southern Region's Sun Family. He's been trapped here for more than a month. Spirit Controlling Realm seventh level."
Finally, Zhou Li pointed towards the woman who had spoken earlier. "Her name is Mu Ye, from the Central Region's Mu Family. She's at the peak of the Spirit Controlling Realm eighth level. She's close to the ninth level."
"We're all 23 years old!"
Zhou Li's last sentence was filled with a thick sense of arrogance. They were the same age, but they were one or even two levels higher than the cultivators from the Forest Bird Region and the Southern Fire Region.
Yang Li glanced at him indifferently. He didn't say a word.
"Now, I'll tell you the method to break the formation. Break it with peace of mind. When the time comes, we'll even give you some benefits. It doesn't matter if you're not qualified. After all, without you, we won't be able to pass the third trial."
Yang Li declined to comment and nodded his head slightly. Although Zhou Li's arrogance made him a little unhappy, from his last sentence, he could see that Zhou Li had some redeeming qualities.
As Zhou Li spoke, Sun Yu and Huo Qing's expressions changed slightly, but it wasn't obvious. Meanwhile, Mu Ye snorted disdainfully. From her point of view, Yang Li was only 20 years old. Even if his cultivation was high, it couldn't be that high.
She had only asked Yang Li to report his cultivation level because she wanted to see Yang Li's potential. However, Yang Li didn't answer her question. This made her extremely unhappy. She even decided to deal with Yang Li after breaking the formation.
Zhou Li then explained the method of breaking the formation to Yang Li in detail. It was quite simple. The few of them only needed to attack a single point.
After a brief discussion, they prepared to break the formation. Yang Li also tried it himself. There was indeed a formation inside.
Although he had a quarrel with Mu Ye, he couldn't be trapped here for too long because of such a small matter.
Everyone slightly adjusted their breathing, then stood up together and attacked the node that Zhou Li had mentioned. At the same time, Yang Li's cultivation was also sensed by the others when they sensed the fluctuation of his spiritual power.
"First level of the Spirit Controlling State, it's really a little weak." Zhou Li murmured. According to the Central Region, one had to be at least at the third level of the Spirit Controlling State at the age of 20 to reach their current cultivation level at the age of 23.
First level of the Spirit Controlling State could only reach the sixth or seventh level of the Spirit Controlling State at the age of 23.
Mu Ye was also unhappy. She even had the thought of crippling Yang Li so that there would be one less person to share the resources with.
Mu Ye was the kind of person who would do what she wanted. As soon as the formation was broken, she appeared beside Yang Li in a flash. At the same time, a pitch-black whip appeared in her hand and wrapped around Yang Li.
"Your cultivation is too low. Don't come and divide our resources. It's better for you to stay quietly on the side." Mu Ye said coldly.
Yang Li wasn't the kind of person who wouldn't be prepared for someone's malicious intent. But even though he was prepared, he was still touched by Mu Ye's whip.
The orbicular sky and square earth appeared, and everyone could see it clearly.
Huo Qing and Sun Yu didn't feel anything, but Zhou Li was different. After seeing the formation on Yang Li's body, Zhou Li's pupils suddenly shrank. Seeing Mu Ye attack towards Yang Li again, Zhou Li brazenly blocked Mu Ye's attack.
Mu Ye's gaze turned to Zhou Li. Even Yang Li, who was ready to use the Blood Explosion Technique, looked at Zhou Li in astonishment.
At this time, a voice transmission sounded in Yang Li's ears, "Where did you learn that orbicular sky and square earth technique?"
"What does that have to do with you?" Yang Li said coldly.
Zhou Li couldn't help but feel a headache when he heard this. He immediately said to Mu Ye.
"Miss Mu, can you give me some face and let this matter rest? After all, I promised this brother that I would give him a share of the resources. "
Mu Ye frowned and said, "Zhou Li, are you sure you want to protect him?"
Huo Qing also interjected, "Brother Zhou, resources are very hard to come by. It's not a bad thing to have one less person."
Zhou Li said coldly, "Do you have the right to interrupt here?!"
Huo Qing was instantly speechless. She looked at Zhou Li with an awkward gaze that contained a trace of coldness.
Mu Ye, on the other hand, could hear the unyielding attitude in Zhou Li's words. She pondered for a moment. Zhou Li's cultivation realm was similar to hers. Moreover, the Zhou Family's unique divination technique might be of great help to her in the future.
In comparison, dealing with Yang Li wasn't important. Mu Ye said, "Since you've spoken, I'll give you some face."
