Chapter 437: Chapter 436: Secret Realm Maps Flying Everywhere

In Red Flame City, on the other side of the Red Flame Marketplace.

Several Inner Sect Disciples of the Star Sect had unexpectedly gathered together.

"Senior Brother Xia, you also got the Secret Realm Map for this Earth God’s Secret Treasure?"

Huo Lei, Mo Zixi, and Yuan Chuxing stared in astonishment at the green-robed young man across from them. He wasn’t what one would call handsome.

But his features combined to give him a unique, almost alien-like quality, with a sharp, commanding presence, as if he were a born leader.

Huo Lei, Mo Zixi, and Yuan Chuxing were no strangers to this green-robed young man.

He was Xia You, the top-ranked disciple of the Inner Sect.

The three of them looked somewhat uncomfortable, a hint of apprehension in their eyes.

Xia You frowned. "You bought this map from Junior Sister Ji as well?"

Huo Lei, Mo Zixi, and Yuan Chuxing exchanged a glance, a strange look passing between them. "Yes, Senior Brother Xia. We’ve been here for half a month already. Could it be..."

"It seems Junior Sister Ji has sold this Relic Secret Realm Map to quite a few people!"

The three looked at each other in dismay.

Xia You remained calm, his gaze sweeping over them. "Indeed. Junior brothers, I’m afraid we aren’t the only ones who have obtained the map to this Earth God’s Secret Treasure. As far as I know, Ye Ding, Yan Ge, Qi Xia’er, and Thunder Extreme Yuan have all come to Red Flame City, and there are even Inner Sect Disciples from the Twenty-eight Peaks!"

"The Inner Sect Disciples from the Twenty-eight Peaks... you all know what they’re capable of! If they get involved, I fear there will be nothing left for us in this Earth God’s Secret Treasure!"

Although they were all called Inner Sect Disciples, the three of them knew that their so-called top-ten ranking was just for show. Compared to the Inner Sect Disciples from the Twenty-eight Peaks, the three of them were inferior in both Divine Abilities and methods.

Even Xia You, hailed as the number one of the Inner Sect, might not gain an advantage against an Inner Sect Disciple from the Twenty-eight Peaks.

The trio’s expressions changed slightly. They exchanged a look, their faces uncertain. After a moment, Huo Lei stepped forward and said, "Then, Senior Brother Xia, what is your brilliant plan?"

"Naturally, we must join forces. Only by working together can we hope to gain anything from the Earth God’s Secret Treasure!"

Xia You’s expression was calm as he spoke with confidence. "The Inner Sect Disciples of the Twenty-eight Peaks may be formidable, but I am not to be trifled with. I have recently mastered the Nine Nether Ten Directions Heaven. With your assistance, it’s only natural that we’ll be able to seize a benefit or two!"

"The Nine Nether Ten Directions Heaven?" The three exchanged a look, shocked.

The Nine Nether Ten Directions Heaven was the legacy Secret Technique of the Nine Nether Evil Venerable, one of the Nine Great Evil Gods who once ran rampant across the Spirit Sea Continent.

Each of the Nine Great Evil Gods was a peerless Venerable who had brought chaos to an entire era, and it was said that every one of them had touched the threshold of the Demon God Realm.

They possessed the ability to challenge Demon Gods of a higher Realm.

Each of the Nine Great Evil Gods had mastered at least one Supreme Great Divine Ability. The Nine Nether Evil Venerable commanded the condensation method for the Nine Nether Ten Directions Heaven, and a single strike from it could make even a Demon God fall.

The three were secretly filled with apprehension.

Meanwhile, in front of a valley several dozen miles outside Red Flame City, Ye Ding and Yu Fuchen were comparing a map. Suddenly, a glint of joy flashed in Ye Ding’s eyes. With a wave of his hand, a vortex flew out from his body, enveloped the nearby Yu Fuchen in a flash, and vanished as a streak of black light.

Not long after they disappeared, several streaks of light descended.

If Qin Feng were here, he would surely recognize them as the Inner Sect Disciples from Jiaomu Peak who had presided over the Snowfield Trial.

Jiu Qing, Le Ming, Hongling, and Jiang Fei’s eyes flashed. The four of them also held a map.

Jiu Qing casually took out his Wine Gourd, took a swig, and sighed. "This Thousand-Year Jade Spirit Brew really hits the spot. A pity there’s so little of it!"

Le Ming glanced at Jiu Qing and snorted. "Senior Brother Jiu, you can gloat all you want. Even the Peak Master doesn’t have much of this Thousand-Year Jade Spirit Brew. Countless senior and junior brothers would be envious that you managed to get a whole gourd of it!"

Hongling glared at the two and scolded them. "You two, stop fooling around! We’ve reached the Earth God Secret Realm. That stinky girl, Ji Huang’Er, has sold this Secret Realm Map to the entire Inner Sect by now. If we’re slow, we won’t even get the leftovers!"

"Zong Wuxiang from Kangjin Peak and Junior Sister Liu from Bi Yue Peak are right behind us!"

Jiu Qing gave a lazy smile. "Junior Sister Hongling, don’t be anxious. Although this Earth God’s Secret Treasure is an Ancient Earth God Palace and holds great treasures, Junior Sister Ji Huang’Er has already cleaned out all the goodies on the outside. The real treasures inside are all protected by Prohibitions and Arrays. Whether we go early or late, it’s all the same!"

Hongling was exasperated. "Senior Brother Jiu, that’s precisely why we have to hurry! Did you think we’re the only ones who brought secret treasures to break the Prohibitions and Arrays? They all brought array-breaking tools bestowed by their elders!"

Just then, several streaks of light flew over from the distant horizon. It was a group of handsome men and beautiful women, their clothes fluttering, wearing Sun, Moon, and Stars Robes and Brocade Crowns of Mountains and Rivers.

"Junior Sister Hongling, Senior Brother Jiu Qing, Senior Brother Le Ming, wait up!" a cheerful voice called out.

The group was incredibly fast, arriving before the valley in the blink of an eye and appearing about a hundred paces away from the four of them.

"Zong Wuxiang!" Hongling’s expression changed slightly. Her gaze swept over the group of seven or eight people, finally landing on a white-robed young man standing beside Zong Wuxiang.

He was an unfamiliar face.

This young man in white was dashing and quite handsome, but his eyes were exceptionally cold. Standing next to Zong Wuxiang, Hongling could clearly sense that the entire group treated him with a distinct trace of reverence.

Zong Wuxiang noticed Hongling’s gaze and said with a light smile, "Junior Sister Hongling, allow me to introduce you. This is the peerless genius of the Mystic Master Guild, the Fourth Grade Xuan Master, Brother-in-law!"

"The Fourth Grade Xuan Master, Brother-in-law!" Not just Hongling, but Le Ming, Jiu Qing, and Jiang Fei were all stirred.

The four of them were profoundly shaken.

’Zong Wuxiang actually managed to invite this person! He’s known as the most outstanding Mystic Master in the history of the Mystic Master Guild. To advance to Fourth Grade Xuan Master before the age of thirty... he could very well become an Array Grandmaster before he’s a hundred!’

The four looked shocked, but forced a smile onto their faces.

"So it is Young Master Brother-in-law. We’ve heard so much about you!"

"With Young Master Brother-in-law here, this Earth God Secret Realm has probably already opened its pockets for Junior Brother Zong!"

Although the four were Inner Sect Disciples of the Star Sect with extremely high status—to the point that even the Sovereigns of some kingdoms would have to greet them respectfully—

they had no choice but to maintain a respectful attitude toward Brother-in-law.

Brother-in-law’s eyes were cold as he said icily, "Enough. Zong Wuxiang, all of you, stop with the nonsense. My time is limited, and I have none to waste here!"

The four were instantly choked up. Their flattery had backfired completely. They maintained their forced smiles, but rage smoldered in their eyes, unable to be expressed.

Zong Wuxiang gave a helpless smile, glanced at the four from Jiaomu Peak whose expressions had turned ugly from being ignored, and his group transformed into several streaks of light, silently disappearing at the mouth of the valley.

Their eyes twitched, and a fire of anger rose in their hearts. Suppressing their rage, the four cursed internally.

’So what if he’s arrogant? He’s just a Fourth Grade Xuan Master. Apart from Arrays, he’s useless.’

With a flash, the four also transformed into streaks of light and followed close behind, seemingly breaking through the Void to enter a mysterious place!

...

As the Netherworld Crow Country Capital, Red Flame City was exceedingly grand.

While its prosperity couldn’t match the City of Many Stars, it was far beyond what an ancient city like Mountain and River City could compare to.

Walking along the streets, one could see teahouses, restaurants, inns, butcher shops, and temples. All around were fortune-tellers, diviners, and apothecaries.

Qin Feng saw several market-lined streets, as well as many entertainment districts, from which he could hear all sorts of shouts and cries from a great distance.

The streets were packed shoulder to shoulder with people, and merchants and travelers came and went in an endless stream.

At the Red Flame Marketplace, Qin Feng had just entered when he was immediately captivated by the numerous Spirit Medicine Seeds...
