"Brother Chu, what do we do next? From now on, Lin Feng will follow your lead," Lin Feng excitedly said to Chu Nan.
Chu Nan looked into the distance and then said, "Huo Lingjun and Zhang Guangyao might be not far ahead. They are probably plotting to obtain the final inheritance here."
Many secret realm inheritances choose successors based on talent first, with cultivation being secondary.
Chu Nan doesn't know much about Zhang Guangyao, but Huo Lingjun's talent is considered extremely strong.
Although her special physique was taken, it doesn't change the fact that she possesses the Red Phoenix Battle Body.
With this foundation, if nothing unexpected happens, the final inheritance of Yao Heaven Arena is likely hers.
Of course, that's if nothing unexpected happens.
Currently, on Chu Nan's side, they have Chu Nan, a rising star who can defeat enemies across levels, and Lin Yian, who holds the true origin of the Red Phoenix Battle Body.
As long as he can arrive before Huo Lingjun obtains the inheritance, the final outcome is still uncertain!
Lin Yian clenched her fist, a look of resentment appearing on her face, "Huo Lingjun, finally going to meet her again. The grudge of her snatching my Red Phoenix Battle Body will be cleared this time."
Lin Yian has always harbored a grudge about her Red Phoenix Battle Body being taken away.
Back then, Huo Lingjun and she were good friends, almost inseparable, and Lin Yian regarded Huo Lingjun as her best sister.
Who could have predicted that Huo Lingjun had impure motives, used this trust to seize the Red Phoenix Battle Body, and even tried to secretly kill her, causing her many years of hardship.
If it weren't for Chu Nan helping her restore the Red Phoenix Battle Body, she would find it extremely difficult to even break through to the first stage of the Yang Wheel, let alone the ninth stage.
Chu Nan also said at this point, "Lin Yian, don't worry, I will help you reclaim what is yours."
"Didn't Huo Lingjun take your Red Phoenix Battle Body? I'll personally take back the Battle Body that belongs to you!"
Lin Yian nodded deeply, trusting what Chu Nan said.
Since meeting Chu Nan at the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect, Chu Nan has kept nearly all of his promises.
She believes that Chu Nan will definitely help her reclaim the Red Phoenix Battle Body this time as well.
Except for Lin Feng who was a bit timid, Chu Nan and Lin Yian were ready to fight a tough battle next.
To be prepared for crises at any time, Chu Nan had placed nine energy stones on the Sword Puppet in advance, ensuring it could burst out with the cultivation of the ninth level of the Divine Illumination Realm at the fastest speed.
Huo Lingjun is at the second level of the Yang Wheel, and Zhang Guangyao is at the first level; even if they have some powerful cards, they will never be a match for the ninth-level Divine Illumination Realm Sword Puppet.
Chu Nan thought that even if Huo Lingjun is an Imperial Capital Martial Artist, she probably couldn't bring helpers from the Cloud Sea Realm here, could she?
The ninth-level Divine Illumination Realm Sword Puppet is more than enough to deal with them.
Chu Nan then said, "Before we find Huo Lingjun and Zhang Guangyao, I'll have the Sword Puppet directly push through the dangers of Yao Heaven Arena, so we maintain the strongest combat power to face them."
Not letting the Sword Puppet directly deal with Huo Lingjun and Zhang Guangyao is because Chu Nan wants to test their strength.
As long as the gap is not too big, Chu Nan is very willing to hone his cultivation and will in successive life-and-death battles.
With Chu Nan's order given, the Sword Puppet immediately started moving.
The cultivation of the ninth level of the Divine Illumination Realm spread in all directions, and even Chu Nan, the master of the Sword Puppet, could feel a slight pressure.
The Sword Puppet, holding a giant sword, began to delve deeper continuously.
Inside Yao Heaven Arena, every so often, there was a secret room that hid some traps and demon beasts, making it impossible to defend against.
However, with the ninth-level Divine Illumination Realm and a Sword Puppet that wouldn't stop as long as there were energy stones, these dangers posed almost no threat to Chu Nan and his companions.
Thus, after spending the time of three sticks of incense, and after using twenty-seven energy stones, they almost swept through all of Yao Heaven Secret Realm.
Along the way, although Chu Nan used up twenty-seven energy stones, the opportunities obtained from various secret rooms not only compensated for the loss but yielded a surplus!
Chu Nan's energy stones accumulated again to nearly three hundred, enough to unleash the power of the Cloud Sea Realm several times with the fusion of eight puppets.
After clearing the danger in the last secret room, utilizing the strong perception of his spiritual sense, Chu Nan said, "Everyone be careful, I've detected many martial artists not far ahead."
"Presumably, Huo Lingjun and Zhang Guangyao are there."
Finally, Chu Nan ordered the Sword Puppet to lower its cultivation, keeping it roughly at the first level of the Divine Illumination Realm.
After preparing all this, Chu Nan and the other two slowly walked toward the deepest part of Yao Heaven Secret Realm.
Soon, they saw a giant stalactite cave but chose not to enter it; instead, they hid behind a large boulder outside the cave to spy secretly.
Scanning the area, Chu Nan found this place much more spacious than the previous secret rooms.
He quickly noticed disciples of the Zhang family and Cyan Profound Martial Academy scattered around, sitting cross-legged as if guarding.
At this moment, Lin Yian cautiously said, "Chu Nan, look quickly, it's Huo Lingjun!"
Following Lin Yian's pointing direction, Chu Nan saw a large, dark altar where Huo Lingjun was sitting cross-legged, her Divine Illumination Realm cultivation spreading unabated like a fiery blaze, scorching and terrifying.
In front of Huo Lingjun was a stone figure bound by golden chains, covered with strange talismanic patterns emitting a blue glow.
Huo Lingjun's hands were constantly forming seals, seemingly attempting to refine something, though judging by the sweat on her forehead, this process was not simple.
Finally, Chu Nan saw Zhang Guangyao below the altar, guarding Huo Lingjun!
In front of Zhang Guangyao was a dried corpse dressed in a luxurious blue robe, the corpse's face long unrecognizable from decay.
Zhang Guangyao's hands formed continuous seals, causing bizarre talismanic patterns to fall on the corpse, making it emit an eerie light.
But at this moment, Lin Yian pressed Chu Nan's shoulder, saying, "Look at that corpse, it seems to be my Lin family ancestor, found by Zhang Guangyao!"
Chu Nan frowned, staring at the seal tactics of Zhang Guangyao with some puzzlement, and after inquiring Kui Guang for answers, he slowly said:
"It seems Zhang Guangyao is refining a corpse. He wants to make it into something like a puppet."
"What!" Lin Yian's eyes widened upon hearing this, unable to accept that her family's ancestor's corpse was being refined into a puppet by the Zhang family.
But Lin Yian didn't act impulsively and instead asked Chu Nan, "What should we do?"
"I want to reclaim the corpse, and my Lin family's inherited supreme treasure might also be on the ancestor. I cannot accept these things being taken by Zhang Guangyao."
Chu Nan understood this profoundly because anyone would react the same way if it happened to them.
"Don't worry, I won't let Zhang Guangyao succeed."
Although he could use the Sword Puppet to sweep through, Chu Nan decided to act cautiously and observe first.
Focusing on the Lin family ancestor's corpse, Chu Nan's mind shifted, and a violet glow split open at his brow.
