Liu Chen knew very well that with his current strength, it was impossible to contend with Wang Ruoxie. Even if he dared to fight the other party, he would certainly die without a doubt.
When Wang Ruoxie was only at the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm cultivation, he could already defeat him with a single sword strike. Now that the other party has broken through to the Meridian Passage Realm, with cultivation equal to his own, killing him would be even easier.
Moreover, this cave only had a very narrow exit. He wouldn't have the slightest chance to escape even if he wanted to.
Hearing Liu Chen's words, Wang Ruoxie's eyes slightly narrowed. Could it be that this Black Tortoise Secret Realm indeed has a special connection with the three great families?
The saying that one must be led by someone from the three great families to enter the Black Tortoise Secret Realm could explain some issues.
Moreover, after entering the Secret Realm, they encountered three forked paths, and seemingly, members of the three great families had long agreed to take different paths.
Although Wang Ruoxie couldn't use these two pieces of information to deduce the true connection between the three great families and the Black Tortoise Secret Realm, he was certain there must be some secrets that outsiders like them did not know.
Now hearing Liu Chen say this, he was even more certain of his guess.
"Wang Ruoxie, I'm not threatening you. If you kill me, you won't be able to obtain the inheritance in the Secret Realm, and you'll be blasted to death by the Secret Realm's array power."
Seeing his words take effect, Liu Chen felt a heavy sigh of relief in his heart, then a trace of a sinister coldness flashed in his eyes.
As long as he could survive, he had enough confidence to restore his cultivation in the shortest time, even gaining significant improvement.
By then, he must crush this person completely to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"What exactly is the connection between the three great families and this Black Tortoise Secret Realm?"
Wang Ruoxie looked towards Liu Chen and asked.
"I don't know, but before entering the Black Tortoise Secret Realm, my father told me that we, the members of the three great families, have an absolute advantage in the Black Tortoise Secret Realm. As long as we follow the set route, we won't encounter any danger."
Liu Chen's eyes flickered as he said to Wang Ruoxie.
"Give me the map."
Wang Ruoxie's eyes brightened slightly. If he could have this map, he could quickly reach the true Inheritance Land and avoid numerous crises and troubles.
"I can give you the map, but you must swear to let me go once you have it."
Liu Chen pondered for a moment and said.
"You have no qualifications to negotiate with me. Either hand over the map, or I'll cripple your cultivation immediately."
Wang Ruoxie looked at Liu Chen indifferently and said, "Even if you're not lying, and I can't kill you, but if I just cripple your cultivation, I suppose I won't be attacked by the Secret Realm array, right?"
"Fine, I'll give you the map."
Liu Chen's expression changed between various emotions, and he finally nodded.
After saying this, he took out a rather ancient piece of animal skin from his bosom and handed it to Wang Ruoxie.
"Black Tortoise Inheritance?"
After receiving the animal skin, Wang Ruoxie focused his eyes and saw that it seemed to be a relatively simple map. The red line on it should be the route to the Inheritance Land.
However, at the end of that red line, the Black Tortoise Inheritance was marked, causing him considerable shock.
The Black Tortoise is one of the top ten Divine Beasts in the Three Realms of the past, even the weakest Black Tortoise possesses Celestial Monarch Realm strength.
If there really is a Black Tortoise inheritance in this Black Tortoise Secret Realm, then even for him, it would be a great fortuitous opportunity.
"Indeed, the inheritance present in this Black Tortoise Secret Realm is not something of the Qi Condensation Realm, but the inheritance of the Divine Beast Black Tortoise."
Liu Chen nodded and said.
"If your three great families truly have a special connection with this Black Tortoise Secret Realm, then why was I not attacked by the Secret Realm array after I killed more than a dozen of your Liu Family members?"
Wang Ruoxie looked up at Liu Chen and said.
"They are different from me. I am a direct descendant of the Liu Family; my father is the Patriarch of the Liu Family. My bloodline is much purer than theirs. Among our three great families, only Xie Yuya, Zhou Wuji, and I are protected by the Black Tortoise Secret Realm array."
Upon hearing this, Liu Chen hurriedly said, "If you kill any one of the three of us, the array of the Black Tortoise Secret Realm will instantly obliterate you."
"Is that so? But I want to try and see if I will really be attacked by the Secret Realm array after killing you."
Wang Ruoxie smiled indifferently and said to Liu Chen.
After saying this, his body trembled slightly and instantly appeared in front of Liu Chen, then directly launched a punch.
"How dare you go back on your word!"
Feeling the terrifying power contained in Wang Ruoxie's punch, Liu Chen's expression changed drastically with horror, then he shouted angrily, meeting the punch with his own.
"Ah!"
With a shrill scream from Liu Chen's mouth, Liu Chen's whole body was blasted back, blood splattered all over the ground.
Faced with Wang Ruoxie's punch, Liu Chen had no power to resist, and his entire arm was almost blasted into pulp.
"No... don't kill me, if you kill me... you'll die too..."
Blood continuously coughed out of Liu Chen's mouth as he spoke intermittently.
"Rest assured, even if I kill you, nothing will happen to me."
Wang Ruoxie said with a calm expression.
After saying this, he once again launched a punch, directly killing Liu Chen.
Subsequently, Wang Ruoxie also devoured the Blood Souls of Liu Chen and the other dozen or so members of the Liu Family.
This time, after consecutively devouring the Blood Souls of a dozen genius powerhouses, his body's Qi and blood surged violently, with extremely powerful Bloodline Power roaring within him.
Soon, this Bloodline Power condensed into a vast and powerful essence, merging into his blood and soul.
"Buzz!"
As a soft sound emanated from within Wang Ruoxie's body, a sword-shaped phantom appeared behind him, surrounded by two orange halos.
"Second Grade Celestial Level Bloodline."
Wang Ruoxie muttered with a faint smile.
Although the Bloodline Tier only improved by a small level, the benefits he received were significant, especially in terms of his physical body, which at least enhanced several times.
"It's time to restore my cultivation."
Wang Ruoxie sat down cross-legged, took out the Blood Bodhi, swallowed it, and began to operate the Nine Transformation Primordial Scripture, refining the pure essence within the Blood Bodhi with full force.
Within the two Chakras, an extremely dense and pure True Essence quickly formed.
Now, at the Second Layer of the Meridian Passage Realm, he had completely opened two Chakras, with True Essence circulating endlessly within them, forming two Minor Cycles.
As time slowly passed, more and more True Essence accumulated within Wang Ruoxie's body, until finally, it surged like a torrent, roaring in his two Chakras.
Half a day quickly passed.
At this moment, Wang Ruoxie's aura was skyrocketing crazily.
A surging momentum rose to the sky, then swept across the entire cave space, causing a large amount of earth and stones to roll down from the surrounding walls.
The dozen corpses on the ground were also completely turned to powder by the incomparably sharp sword aura.
