The Divine Martial Stars

Chapter 740 Closure of the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm

“What’s going on?”

Wang Yanyi rubbed his glabella as he tried to recall what happened just now. He felt a little confused. When he carefully felt the current surging through him, he found that it felt warm as it surged through him with the purest energy. He did not feel uncomfortable for the moment.

Only then did he feel a little relieved.

“What on earth is that purple-gold light?

“Why did it have to choose me?”

He had a headache.

However, he soon stopped caring about it.

The warm current in his body became hotter and hotter, and some strange energy flowed to all his limbs and bones, forming a strange circuit. Then, it began to surge wildly along the natural Qi channels in his body.

In the end, the warm current merged into his own natural Qi and got out of his control. It circulated back and forth between his Dantian and the Mud-pill Palace in his Sea of Consciousness in Big and Small Circulatory Cycles.

Wang Yanyi felt that his power was growing rapidly like a balloon being inflated.

The strange hot current merged with his natural Qi and circulated naturally in Big and Small Circulatory Cycles. Every time it ran a circle, he felt that his power seemed to be about to reach a new level.

“The rate of growth of my power is incredible”.

He subconsciously felt that he had probably stumbled upon some incredible opportunity.

However, he could not act carelessly.

He immersed himself in the water and began to observe his body.

As the hot current surged, he felt like the current was flowing like a thread through the natural Qi channels and passed through his flesh and blood. At first, he felt pain, but the pain soon turned into a feeling of unprecedented comfort. Later, even his bone marrow felt warm.

“Is it because that some new natural Qi channels have been opened to enable peripheral circulation?”

Wang Yanyi was a master of martial arts. He had read many martial arts books, so he soon understood what was going on in his body.

He had some doubts at first, but later, he confirmed that the hot current would not do any harm to him. Then, he calmed down and started to guide the hot current with the Cultivation Methods that he practiced, trying to control the cultivation process.

Time went by slowly.

One day later.

Someone suddenly appeared by the river.

It was an old man wearing a black robe. When he saw the bloodstains and the Witchcraft Saint’s body and head on the bank of the river, he froze for a moment and then roared angrily.

“Who is it? Who killed the Witchcraft Saint?”

He was the Witchcraft Saint’s protector.

He had left for only a short while. He didn’t expect that the Witchcraft Saint would die while he was away.

He looked at the river.

Strong energy waves burst out from the water.

“Who is hiding in the water? Come out!” The old man in the black robe performed a magical skill, producing numerous shining runes. He cut off the turbulent flow of the river directly and produced a terrifying force that rushed toward the spot from which the energy waves came.

A sword suddenly stuck out of the water and flashed.

Bang!

The look on the king-level protector’s face suddenly changed, and his pupils dilated. Before he could react, he was directly smashed into blood mist by the sword light.

He had so many powerful skills, but he had had no time to use any of them.

Wang Yanyi walked out of the water barefoot with his black hair disheveled.

A strong aura was swirling around him.

“I’ve reached the intermediate king level, but I haven’t fully refined the power of the warm current in my body. There are at least four-fifths of it to be refined... Heavens, what kind of opportunity is this?”

He still looked greatly shocked.

By now, he hadn’t figured out what was going on.

He felt like this opportunity had fallen upon him by accident like a big pie falling from the sky into his mouth directly.

Even those chosen by the heavens might not be so lucky.

“Whatever it is, I need to find a place to refine the power in my body first...”

Wang Yanyi looked at the mess and bloodstains on the bank of the river. He knew that he could not stay in this place for a long time.

However, as soon as this idea popped into his mind, the token for entering the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm suddenly began to flash with strange bright light. The next moment, his body was directly transferred away from the riverside.

“Holy smoke! The Heavenly Fox Secret Realm is going to be closed!”

At the same time, the Witchcraft Saint’s body and head and the broken limbs of his protector on the bank of the river also disappeared.

Amidst the divine light, the Heavenly Legends in different areas and places of the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm also disappeared in a flash. They were all out of the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm.

“Hmm?”

The Gold and Silver King suddenly felt that the load on her back decreased. Then, she found that the bodies of Ying Yuanyuan and Liao Bi’ting were gone.

She was greatly shocked.

“What’s going on?”

When she escaped from the blue mountain, it suddenly occurred to her that Li Mu seemed to care much about the two girls, so she took them with her to make Li Mu happy.

However, the two girls were missing.

“This... What the hell is going on?

“The two girls have disappeared from my back. I’m in big trouble this time. How should I explain to Li Mu?

“I might as well have left those two female creatures on the blue mountain.”

With a confused look on her face, the Gold and Silver King began to search for them everywhere.

The secret token flashed with divine light, which was swirling around Li Mu’s body.

Just when he was about to be teleported away, the nine-headed divine bird suddenly spewed out a ball of nine-colored flame. The flame swirled around Li Mu, and the token for entering the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm suddenly exploded and turned into powder.

He was not teleported out of the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm.

“The people of the six major clans must be out there. It is too dangerous to leave the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm now. If I get out now, I will walk right into their trap.”

The nine-headed divine bird flapped his wings and flew fast in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm.

He could neither land nor stop flying.

He kept flying and constantly changing his position.

The Heavenly Fox Secret Realm was closed.

In the Imperium Vulpes divine city, the people of various clans and tribes were waiting in the square outside the entrance to the secret region. They saw the flashing ripples in the sky. Numerous beams of divine light fell on the ground and turned into figures.

“They’re back.”

“They’re coming out.”

“The Heavenly Fox Secret Realm is finally closed. My Qilin’er must have obtained a great opportunity. Ha-ha-ha-ha...”

The crowd discussed excitedly.

In the square, the high-level leaders and seniors of various forces from the Star Regions in the Ziwei Star Zone were waiting for their offspring to return in triumph.

In the real world, a whole month had passed. Finally, the day came. The “parents” who had received advance notice from the Heavenly Fox Clan were waiting anxiously for their children to return. They were just like the parents waiting outside the examination room for their children to come out after the exam.

As the people came out of the secret realm, the crowd in the square burst into cheers.

In the crowd, the Posthouse Officer, Dongfang Piaoliang, stood on his toes and looked around with a smile on his face. He was looking for Li Yidao.

He looked a little anxious.

The reason was that he heard some bad news before the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm was opened. He was worried that Li Yidao might run into danger in the secret realm.

Hua Xiangrong, the Lady of the Clouds, was standing beside Dongfang Piaoliang and waiting for her lover to appear.

Li Yidao had been away for a month. She missed him very much.

Besides Hua Xiangrong, Bu Feiyan was also waiting for Li Yidao to come back. However, she was more nervous and anxious than Huang Xiangrong. After all, there were only a few days left before the deadline. If Li Mu didn’t find the Soul-replenishing Heavenly Herb, her sister’s life would be in danger.

Anxious and worried, she came here early in the morning to wait.

In the distance, there was a person wearing a ragged robe. He looked like a beggar, and his messy hair covered his face. He was limping as if he were looking for someone.

The flying shuttle of Daji, the little princess of the Heavenly Fox Clan, hovered above the west margin of the square.

Daji held the railing tightly and looked down. She was looking forward to seeing that person in the crowd. There was a worried and anxious look on her beautiful face.

The two maids behind her looked nervously at her, fearing that she would suddenly jump off the flying shuttle and go to the square to look for the person on her mind.

What many anxious “parents” didn’t notice was that a large number of silver-armored guards of the Heavenly Fox Clans swarmed around the square. They had quietly surrounded the entire square as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

“Ah...”

Someone in the square suddenly screamed in despair and burst into tears.

The crowd looked over and saw several old practitioners crying around a cold dead body.

“That Heavenly Legend is dead.”

“He died in the secret realm.”

“Are those his parents? Alas, what a pity. The hope of their clan is suddenly gone.”

While the crowd was discussing with pity, more cries and screams rang out.

Over ten people appeared in the square first. They were all Heavenly Legends that got out of the secret realm alive. Later, as the divine light flashed, more figures fell on the square. However, they were not people who were alive, but cold corpses, broken limbs, blood, and bones...

When the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm was closed, the Heavenly Legends that had entered it were sent out, no matter how they looked like, if they were alive or dead, and if they were complete or incomplete.

Even the powder of the Witchcraft Saint’s protector, who was killed and smashed into powder by Wang Yanyi, was sent out.

The eager “parents” saw the broken bodies of their sons, daughters, or offspring that had been sent out. Some of those who had been sent out could only be identified by their clothes or weapons. When those “parents” saw the tragic scene, they felt as if they had fallen into an abyss, and grief and despair engulfed them.

“Who is it? Who killed my beloved grandson?”

“Ah-ah-ah, my dear son...”

The “parents” with different identities had the same grief. These big shots, whose words carried weight in their own Star Regions, all felt heartbroken.

“My daughter, my dear daughter...”

Liao Bi’ting’s parents fell into despair when they saw their daughter’s dead body. They could not accept all of this.

When Ying Yuanyuan’s parents found that their daughter was seriously injured but still had a chance of survival, they were overjoyed, and they hurriedly tried to rescue her.

Scenes of tragedy played out in the square.

“Something’s not right. In the previous sessions of trial practice in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm, there weren’t so many casualties. This time, however, the Heavenly Legends loss rate was higher than seventy percent. Why?”

The Posthouse Officer, Dongfang Piaoliang, observed carefully and drew a shocking and incredible conclusion.

“What on earth has happened in the Heavenly Fox Secret Realm?”

As time went by, there were fewer and fewer beams of teleporting divine light in the sky, and the number of people sent out of the secret realm was decreasing.

The teleportation came to an end.

All kinds of news spread in the square.

The young master of the Green Fox Tribe had died.

Feng Xingyun, the Nether Ghost, was also dead.

Ye Tianxie, the Witchcraft Saint, Ao Jiuchuan, Duan Shenbing...

All of them had died.

The death rate for super Heavenly Legends was even higher than that for ordinary Heavenly Legends.

The successors that various influential clans and tribes had cultivated painstakingly had died. The people of those clans and tribes were greatly shocked.

Who killed so many Heavenly Legends?

The practitioners and people of various clans and tribes noticed that the young master of the Heavenly Deity Clan, Wang Yanyi—the God of Sword, and Li Yidao—the God of Broadswords, had not been sent out.

“Are they alive or dead?”
