"Goddammit, who the hell is this guy? Even more arrogant than me!" King of Spraying King Pen Duanchang stood aside with his knife, itching to chop Zhao Ritian right then and there.
However, Zhao Ritian was well aware of his disdain but didn't even entertain the thought of killing these little ants who were only at the Golden Core Realm.
Having been confined for so long, he had no idea what the situation Outside was like. But as soon as he got out, he sensed quite a few powerful auras, so he made his way over, clearing the path. He even chewed and swallowed the Centipede Dragon on the Grassland alive. The Red-robed Ghost tried to escape, but Zhao Ritian still caught her. Then, sensing the presence of teleportation waves, he headed straight for this place.
He had no intention of staying in this Ghostly Place forever. Naturally, if there was a way out, he would follow and leave. Weren't the little critters of Sunset Forest precisely the ones he had set his sights on?
Zhao Ritian threw the Red-robed Ghost to the ground and then, in front of everyone, ripped off the blood-red robe she was wearing. This scene left everyone with their jaws dropped.
What the hell? Is this guy not even going to spare a ghost?
Forget about them; even the Red-robed Ghost was shocked silly. She thought she was going to be killed, but instead, this member of the Human Race stripped her of her clothes, and then... this person started to take off his own clothes right in front of her!
Just as Zhao Ritian stripped down to nothing but his shimmering Golden Light underwear, he suddenly stopped, turned his head, and growled fiercely, "Everyone shut your eyes! You're not qualified to watch what I'm about to do!"
Faced with the threat from this mysterious and formidable figure, the Demon Race turned away, not daring to look. Fox QiQi's cheeks flushed with embarrassment as she mumbled complaints under her breath. Luo Yuan also hurriedly gestured to his junior brothers and sisters to close their eyes. It was quite clear that this person was not to be trifled with. What if he suddenly lashed out and killed them? The gains weren't worth the risk. While the Red-robed Ghost looked good without her clothes, they weren't supposed to blatantly stare.
The Profound Yellow Sect Disciples, on the other hand, were much calmer. After all, they were players and had guessed much of what would happen next.
"Damn, this is like a Live Stream. I've never played anything this wild in my life."
"Who is this guy? He doesn't even spare the Red-robed Ghost. Old Mo, do you think you can handle him after opening the Death Gate?"
"I might stand a chance if I open the Death Gate, but I won't beat him. Plus, I'd be eliminated, and the Sect Leader would kill me."
"He doesn't even spare ghosts! This Non-player Character is way too strong, isn't he? Seriously, does he just not care that we're all watching?"
"..."
The scene that followed was somewhat inappropriate for children.
Zhao Ritian didn't care about the Profound Yellow Sect Disciples. Although he verbally told them to close their eyes, having them watch wasn't bad either. He wanted to show off a man's prowess!
After well over an hour, the Red-robed Ghost had completely passed out, but Zhao Ritian did not spare her.
The Dung Beetles had grown numb from watching and turned to start clearing the snakes, insects, rats, and ants at their feet.
So brutal! Even if the other party was a Red-robed Ghost, was it right to treat her like a mere tool? This level of brutality was unheard of.
After Zhao Ritian got dressed, he sat on the ground staring at the people inside Sunset Forest and muttered to himself, "Do you know why I've set my sights on you?"
The Red-robed Ghost was unconscious, nowhere near able to hear his words.
"I remember you. You were once by Sun Yaoci's side. Although I don't know why you've ended up like this, confined here, back in the day you cursed at me."
Zhao Ritian muttered to himself, "You can only blame your bad luck for running into me here. Sun Yaoci's debt to me will have to be repaid by you."
Although his words were not loud, almost everyone in Sunset Forest heard them. They had no idea who this Sun Yaoci he mentioned was, nor the significance of his words. However, one thing was certain: this person was definitely the strongest existence in the Secret Realm.
Junlin approached Luo Yuan and Fox QiQi to confirm their scores. After estimating the scores of the Top 100, they too decided to leave this place. With a Boss nearby, who knew what might happen next? So, leaving as soon as possible was the best course of action.
Noticing their intentions, Zhao Ritian slowly stood up, a mocking smile on his face, "Kid, are you guys thinking of leaving me behind and taking off?"
At that remark, everyone felt as if they were facing a great enemy.
Zhao Ritian took in their expressions and waved his hand carelessly with a laugh, "Don't worry, I won't kill you guys. After all, you're too weak, so weak that I can't be bothered to lift a finger. The ones I want to kill are existences that you can't even comprehend."
Sunset Forest was dead silent. Not a single person took the lead in leaving. They all quietly watched the man in front of them, bound in chains and looking quite ragged.
"Use your teleportation Spiritual Artifact to take me with you, and I can assure you that I won't kill those people behind you."
Zhao Ritian stepped forward, standing in front of Junlin, and said, "You're their leader, right? I'm not discussing this with you; I'm commanding you to take me out of here!"
Seeing Zhao Ritian up close, Junlin felt as if he didn't even have the thought to open his mouth to resist.
What the hell? Does this Boss come with a mute function?
While he hesitated, Old Mo sent a private message.
"Old Mo: Take him with us. I'm not his match, but the Sect Leader can definitely take him on. Once we're out, let the Sect Leader do it."
"Junlin: Are you sure? If this Boss can silence us, can the Sect Leader really win?"
"Old Mo: If we don't take him, Luo Yuan and the others are likely to die here. These Non-player Characters can't be resurrected if they die, and we'll have to start over raising Affinity."
"Junlin: It's doable, but I'm worried that even the Sect Leader might not be able to suppress this Boss."
"Old Mo: Just trust me. The Sect Leader is the combat power ceiling of this game. There's definitely a follow-up story to this Boss's appearance."
"Junlin: You're saying... the Fifth Test?"
"Old Mo: Let's bet on it. If the Fifth Test is related to this Boss, it will be beneficial for us to raise our Affinity!"
"..."
After a long time, Junlin finally nodded.
Seeing Junlin agree, Zhao Ritian patted his shoulder contentedly, saying with a smile, "Good. I like people like you."
Seeing that this person was about to leave with the Profound Yellow Sect Disciples, Fox QiQi and Luo Yuan chose to leave immediately. They needed to spread the news, ensuring everyone Outside knew what was happening. A terrifying individual had appeared in the Secret Realm; if he got out, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the Cultivation Realm.
Junlin no longer hesitated and activated the Token in his hand, while Zhao Ritian grabbed his shoulder, not allowing him to easily leave him behind.
「Outside.」
As the Demon Race and the Great Dream Immortal Sect Disciples appeared first, many people looked over with some dissatisfaction. They all knew about the events inside the Secret Realm, and now they didn't have much goodwill toward the Profound Yellow Sect.
"Old Man, run! There's a powerful expert coming out of the Secret Realm!"
The moment Luo Yuan returned, he shouted at Meng Fenggu.
Fox QiQi and the others also returned to the Demon Race, explaining to their Demon Race Leader what had happened inside the Secret Realm.
When everyone learned that a master from the Secret Realm was about to appear, an indescribable sense of oppression loomed in their hearts. This Secret Realm originated from the Upper Realm, so the master within could only be from there. Each major force had ancestors who had achieved Ascension to the Upper Realm; thus, this person might be connected to one of them. If they could persuade him to stay, or even enlist his help, wouldn't the Cultivation Realm be entirely within their grasp?
Nearly all the forces were thinking along these lines.
Knowing that this individual was of the Human Race, the Demon Race couldn't help but feel worried as well. What if this Human Race member decided to attack them?
At that moment, the Profound Yellow Sect Disciples also started to appear before everyone, along with a man covered in chains, disheveled and extremely unkempt.
The moment this man appeared, an indescribable feeling of oppression washed over them. Even the Celestial Dome above began to gather a great mass of dark clouds, with thick bolts of purple lightning continuously flickering within.
"I'm... finally out! Sun Yaoci, all of you, just wait for me! Wait for me to come back and finish you off!"
Zhao Ritian tilted his head back, breathing deeply the Spiritual Qi he had missed for so long, while indulging in the freedom he had yearned for over many years.
