Under the leadership of Chu Lingshan, the Spirit Corpse Sect unleashed all its power.
With him as the core, several Hidden Corpse figures comparable to the Cloud Sea Realm glared down fiercely at Huo Wan and Zhou Bai.
The Yin Evil Qi, as cold as ice, began to permeate, enveloping everyone's hearts with a layer of frost, causing them to tremble faintly.
"How can this be? Chu Nan is actually the Young Sect Leader of the Spirit Corpse Sect!"
"Incredible, incredible! No wonder Chu Nan has always been with people from the Spirit Corpse Sect; it turns out he is already the Young Sect Leader of the Spirit Corpse Sect."
"Spirit Corpse Sect is one of the strongest sects in our Qin Kingdom. Within the Celestial Crossing Realm, no strong race can possibly restrain him."
"Going outside might be negotiable, but in this Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, the Huo and Zhou families stand no chance against Chu Nan."
People discussed continuously, unable to stop their amazement.
No one expected that Chu Nan, originating from the small Qingxuan Province, would become the Young Sect Leader of the Spirit Corpse Sect.
However, when someone recalled the Yin Sha Tribulation Light that Chu Nan had previously displayed, they suddenly understood.
The Celestial Eye was clearly related to Yin Evil Qi, and with the Spirit Corpse Sect focusing on Corpse Refinement, appointing Chu Nan as Young Sect Leader seemed quite natural.
Huo Nianfang silently let out a breath of relief, her heart was always on edge.
Yet, due to her Cultivation being merely at the fifth layer of the Divine Illumination Realm, she didn't even have the chance to speak here, let alone stop Huo Wan and Zhou Bai.
Huo Wan and Zhou Bai likewise looked grim.
They realized that if the Spirit Corpse Sect was determined to protect Chu Nan within the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, they virtually had no options.
But Huo Wan still asked Chu Lingshan unwillingly, "Sect Leader Chu, this Chu Nan is someone our Huo family must capture. Are you truly going to oppose our strong race for him?"
"Chu Lingshan, I advise you to move aside quickly; otherwise, when we exit the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, my Zhou family will make your Spirit Corpse Sect pay," Zhou Bai said with agitation, having repeatedly failed to succeed in killing Chu Nan.
This humiliated him, someone of the Cloud Sea Realm from a strong race.
Chu Lingshan remained silent, answering Zhou Bai and Huo Wan with his actions.
He casually pointed, and all the Hidden Corpse figures around him charged forward, attacking Huo Wan and Zhou Bai.
The gloomy wind blew, and in a rage, the Hidden Corpses scattered blood across ten thousand miles!
In an instant, a group of Hidden Corpses engaged Huo Wan and Zhou Bai, terrifying Spiritual Power constantly exploding, the surging power startling everyone into change.
Onlookers rushed to avoid, even the younger members of the Huo and Zhou families unwillingly retreated.
Huo Wan and Zhou Bai looked incredibly grim; the encirclement by the Hidden Corpses left them at a loss for action, especially as one among them, comparable to the sixth layer of the Cloud Sea Realm, was strikingly sharp.
Regurgitation!
After a few breaths, Huo Wan and Zhou Bai were directly struck by the Hidden Corpses, causing them to spit blood.
Huo Wan shouted in anger, "Chu Lingshan, don't push me!"
Zhou Bai's face was pale; he couldn't even speak.
Because Chu Lingshan held a grudge against the Zhou family, most of the Hidden Corpses focused their attacks on him.
Seeing Huo Wan and Zhou Bai injured, Chu Lingshan coldly chuckled and called back the Spirit Corpse, "Huo Wan, Zhou Bai, I will spare you this time."
"If you meddle in the struggles among the youths, don't blame my Spirit Corpse Sect for being ruthless."
Chu Lingshan refrained from killing Huo Wan and Zhou Bai because he knew these two originated from strong races, guaranteed to harbor hidden cards while exploring the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm.
If truly forced into a corner, these Hidden Corpses might suffer losses.
Right now, intimidation suffices; exploring the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm is the top priority.
Chu Nan stood behind Chu Lingshan, completely resolving the crisis this time, and profoundly appreciating the feeling of being protected—absolutely wonderful.
No need to worry about getting surrounded and killed, nor being hampered in any way.
After this intimidation, Chu Nan believed that within the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, no one from the Cloud Sea Realm would dare attack him.
Zhi Qingge let out a long breath of relief, very fortunate to explore the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm alongside Chu Nan.
Had it been her alone, she likely would have already become prey on the chopping block of various strong races, not to mention shaking off the Demon Blood's drawbacks; she probably would have lost her life here.
Other forces kept silent, even the royal family stood aside.
Whether it was royal forces, strong races, or the major sects of Qin Kingdom, they didn't send many strong warriors this time.
Led by one or two Cloud Sea Realm figures, such a lineup suffices for exploring the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm.
But no one expected the Spirit Corpse Sect to make nearly a complete move for Chu Nan. Not only did the Sect Leader personally come, but also several Hidden Corpses comparable to the Cloud Sea Realm.
Based on apparent strength alone, the Spirit Corpse Sect is undoubtedly the strongest presence!
Huo Wan and Zhou Bai exchanged glances, knowing they couldn't possibly do anything to Chu Nan, especially since the true treasures of the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm hadn't emerged, not worth fighting to the death with the Spirit Corpse Sect for one Chu Nan.
"Fine, for the sake of your Spirit Corpse Sect, we'll temporarily spare Chu Nan." Huo Wan glared at Chu Nan viciously, "When we exit the Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, we'll settle the score."
Zhou Bai turned his head, snorted coldly, angered into silence.
And so, a crisis that appeared ready to explode at any moment was ended under the powerful hand of Chu Lingshan.
Yet Chu Nan had no intention of stopping here; other forces must remain here due to injuries from forcibly entering the Demon Beast Plain, forming a confrontational situation.
But they took the safest route, encountering no danger along the way, with no one injured.
"Sect Leader, shall we push open this palace door now," Chu Nan said.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's gaze focused on Chu Nan again, some unable to sit still.
Their injuries hadn't healed yet; was Chu Nan's group taking this opportunity to forcefully enter inside seeking opportunity?
An elder from the royal family Ji Clan snorted coldly, about to say something to stop Chu Nan and the Spirit Corpse Sect.
But Chu Lingshan had already ordered the Hidden Corpses around him, rushing to the palace door, preparing to jointly push it open.
Rumble!
A series of loud noises echoed incessantly in everyone's ears, dust began to fall along the door cracks.
The heavy palace door showed signs of loosening, slowly pushed open by the terrifying strength of several Hidden Corpses. At this moment, everyone widened their eyes.
The door opened wide, and an ancient aura surged towards them, absorbed Spiritual Power accompanied by the eerie wind blew from behind the door, making one's hair stand on end, shivering continuously.
Through the opened portal, Chu Nan could clearly see inside the palace—its universe limitless, not connecting to the sky above or ground below.
The grandeur was unmatched—the most magnificent Chu Nan had ever seen!
"It's opened!"
"Originally planned to wait for injuries to recover before opening the door, but now the Spirit Corpse Sect has completely ignored convention."
Everyone exclaimed, no longer able to sit still.
The allure of treasure moved their hearts, previously untouched only due to everyone's injuries before the palace door. But now, with the door open, despite unrecovered injuries, they couldn't remain inactive.
"Quick, enter!"
"Heaven-Shaking Secret Realm, the Zhi family took advantage of this realm to elevate through Demon Blood, becoming a strong race in the Imperial Capital. I must know the secrets behind that Demon Blood!"
Everyone was stirred, without much hesitation, and charged in groups through the palace door.
