"Look, that savage has appeared again; it's blinding to the eyes!"

In the distance, someone stood on a mountain peak, staring in shock at Wang Xuan.

What kind of person is this? Not wearing a single piece of clothing, with only a rudimentary pair of shorts made from tree bark on his lower half, he was running wildly, looking like a wild man.

"Indeed, he's an uncivilized savage, shamelessly running around naked!" Several extraterrestrial masters looked down, filled with deep disdain.

"Don't underestimate him; this savage has strong survival skills and has managed to survive again."

Someone warned. They were guarding this area, wanting to kill Wang Xuan while also seeking opportunities to continue gathering herbs.

"He even dared to hide in the belly of a silkworm snake; I bet he's hiding in the belly of some big fish nearby, masking his breath in the water, drifting along to escape danger!"

"That makes sense. If he has cultivated a golden body technique, hiding in the belly of a fierce beast could indeed work!" The man who had personally jumped into the river to escape nodded in realization.

The others' eyes were cold as they imagined various savage behaviors of Wang Xuan.

"Prepare to hunt him down; this time we absolutely cannot let him escape!" The five survivors were preparing for revenge, hating Wang Xuan deeply, as he was the reason their team had suffered continuous casualties.

"We only have five left and can't compete with other teams at all. Moreover, I just saw people from the 'Transcendence Star' from a distance; the woman leading them actually used techniques similar to the transcendent ones while dealing with a monster!"

Someone sighed; he had only taken a glance before fleeing, afraid of being noticed.

In the outer region of the Secret Realm, if you weren't from the same team, you were an enemy, a competitor; when encountering each other, one side would inevitably be killed without a way out.

Now they were utterly dispirited; before the competition even started, their numbers had already halved, and they could only hope to survive by hiding near these transcendent nests.

"Clearly, someone can advance to transcendent yet is holding back, wanting to monopolize the advantages in the outer region to obtain that legendary benefit."

"Some teams' ambitions are even bigger than you can imagine." A man named Zhuo Yang spoke.

He believed that some sought to gain the greatest benefits in the outer region before advancing to the transcendent realm, then rush into the deeper parts of the Secret Realm for transcendent battles, competing for that legendary transformation.

In the realm of transcendence, things were all referred to as legendary treasures!

They could change a practitioner's fate; otherwise, ordinary things wouldn't attract them to compete and contend in this hidden land.

...

Wang Xuan seized the opportunity and charged toward the silver bear's nest, already smelling the fragrant silver-white herbs.

Among the herbal aroma was a seductive, unique fragrance, reminiscent of blood grapes, making it hard to resist approaching and consuming.

Wang Xuan suddenly realized that this area was adjacent to the realm of the dead, and the ancestors of the eight major transcendent nests likely once walked the path of true bodies, evolving into demons.

Thus, the herbs in their residences were mostly demonic fruits.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a stone weighing dozens of pounds fell from the sky, nearly crushing him, landing with a loud bang and creating a large pit.

Then, stones continued to rain down, making a huge commotion.

Wang Xuan quickly turned around and saw several figures flash and then vanish on the distant peak.

They wanted... to use the bear to kill him!

Wang Xuan's eyes flared with anger. How could someone ruin his opportunity? Just as he was about to succeed, they stirred up the forest, alerting the silver bear.

Although he was now close to the herbs, he resolutely turned and rushed toward the Mist Zone.

Anyone blocking his herb gathering and hindering his ascension was akin to a mortal enemy; Wang Xuan's anger soared, wishing he could immediately hunt down those individuals.

He clearly recognized that it was those extraterrestrial masters.

They hadn't left yet; they had set their sights on him and were determined to eliminate him. There was nothing more to discuss; he must counterattack soon.

In the depths of the dense forest, a violent aura surged, and terrifying energy surged forth, causing many large trees to explode.

The round silver bear unexpectedly soared into the sky, trembling as its once-fat body slimmed down.

It actually had a pair of fluffy giant wings that it usually didn't use, folded against its body, making it appear bloated.

Now, with its wings spread wide, the silver light surged, and it resembled a brilliant lightning bolt streaking across the treetops, overlooking its nest.

Wang Xuan's scalp tingled; this creature, which had seemed the slowest, was now as quick as lightning, faster than that golden monster bird—who could stop it?

Fortunately, he had made a decisive retreat earlier. After being obstructed and disrupted, he turned back without stubbornly attempting to gather herbs.

Otherwise, he would certainly have become the silver bear's meal!

The silver bear followed the footprints Wang Xuan left in the ground, its senses incredibly sharp.

In a narrow escape, Wang Xuan slipped into the Mist; the silver bear couldn't catch up, only catching a glimpse of his blurred naked back.

Boom!

The silver bear unleashed a bolt of lightning, creating a massive pit outside the dead zone, which was dark and deep, deep enough to bury several giant monsters without filling it. The edges of the pit were scorched black.

Wang Xuan was greatly startled; indeed, the most low-key were often the most powerful. That plump silver bear was unexpectedly terrifying.

He believed that even two silkworm snakes combined wouldn't be a match for this lightning-spewing silver bear.

Yet he still felt that if it weren't for those people disrupting his plans, even if he was chased by the silver bear after harvesting the rare herbs, he would have managed to escape smoothly.

"Blocking my path should warrant throwing you to the bears!" Wang Xuan was extremely annoyed; this truly wasted a fantastic opportunity for him.

He waited a long time, cautiously leaving the edge of the Mist, using his powerful mental field to explore and ensure there was no danger before entering the forest.

There was no way to pluck silver bear fur now; this dangerous monster that could fly and summon thunder was too hazardous; he needed to switch to another transcendent nest.

"I have no enmity with the silver bear, so I won't covet its transcendent herbs. Grudges have heads, debts have owners; I'll go find the mountain turtle for revenge!" Wang Xuan reassured himself.

Before that, he wanted to deal with those extraterrestrials first; otherwise, if they ambushed him halfway, it would be a serious problem.

Wang Xuan sat in the forest for a long time, pondering how these extraterrestrials arrived, where their spaceship was, and if there were any accomplices.

This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.

"They only came to gather demonic fruits?" Wang Xuan felt it was unlikely.

This group was so young yet already masters, indicating their home planet must have an astonishing background, not inferior to the Secret Realm, with a mature transcendent civilization system that wouldn't lack for herbs.

"Why did they come? They must have something that deeply attracts them, and I'll take it from them!"

As Wang Xuan was contemplating this, the five individuals emerged, having found their way into the dense forest.

"We found him!" The five quietly surrounded him, determined to kill this savage, finally locking onto their target.

After forming his mental field, Wang Xuan's senses became extraordinarily keen. As he scanned his surroundings, a chill instantly ran down his spine.

He hadn't even gone to find these people for revenge yet, but they had come to hunt him down instead.

Wang Xuan stood up and looked at the five people approaching. He was calm and composed, which saved him the trouble of seeking them out.

"Maybe the ancestors of this savage are actually our Olarans, who ended up staying on this planet." One of them spoke.

"Not even wearing clothes, he's truly returned to a primitive state, living off the land."

They had nothing nice to say and harbored deep hatred for Wang Xuan because he had killed their companion.

"Where are you people from?" Wang Xuan asked. Unfortunately, although the opponents had strong mental powers, they hadn't formed their own domains, making it impossible for him to fully grasp their thoughts.

Wang Xuan felt helpless and could only point at them, using their language to label them one by one: "Savages!"

Of course, he could only match a few words in their language with his mental field.

The group immediately exploded with anger; how dare this uncivilized wild man call them savages!

In an instant, both sides engaged in battle!

Wang Xuan was at the mid-stage of a Grandmaster, while the opposing side had someone in the late stage, but he felt no fear. He had already killed one of their own before, so what was there to worry about after his breakthrough?

He intentionally wanted to test the strength of his Golden Body Technique, so he charged straight in, especially after locking onto a target. He shot forward like a cannonball, crashing his entire body into his opponent.

That person quickly retreated, opening his mouth to unleash a flame.

As a result, Wang Xuan's chest shook slightly, and a bolt of lightning erupted, dispersing the flames and striking that person, causing one side of his body to go numb.

With a loud crash, Wang Xuan continued his momentum, using his body as a weapon to slam into the now-numb man.

The man felt as if he had been hit by a rampaging extraordinary bull, excruciating pain coursing through him, and several bones broke upon impact as he was sent flying.

Wang Xuan moved at incredible speed, quickly chasing after him, ready to slap him dead. But he suddenly remembered he was still without clothes and didn't want to make it a bloody scene.

Instead, he grabbed the man and with a sickening crack, snapped his neck, eliminating one opponent.

He was quite satisfied with his current combat strength!

The remaining four were shocked; they had just exchanged blows, and one of their Grandmasters had been killed?!

"Kill!"

They roared in anger, realizing Wang Xuan had mastered the Golden Body Technique and dared not clash head-on. They all unleashed flames and thunder that could only be used in the Grandmaster realm.

However, they found that even though the thunder caused Wang Xuan to stagger, it couldn't kill him. His body shone with golden light, and the Golden Body Technique allowed him to withstand it.

Not only did they know these secret techniques, but Wang Xuan did too, and he could wield both thunder and flame.

Normally, within the Grandmaster realm, one could only master one special ability.

Boom!

Wang Xuan's internal organs shone with light as a bolt of lightning shot out, striking one of them and sending him flying.

The man's chest turned black and began to spasm, nearly losing all fighting capability.

Wang Xuan charged forward, wanting to give him a finishing slap to end his life.

The only woman among the five screamed, launching a mental assault on Wang Xuan, trying to stop him from killing. Her mental energy was formidable.

But it didn't affect Wang Xuan at all.

At the same time, the woman unleashed thunder, continuously striking down toward him.

Wang Xuan smirked, locking his gaze on her. His body shimmered with golden light, and he charged directly at her.

The woman called forth the thunder, constantly swinging her palm to attack Wang Xuan.

In close combat, how could she possibly compete with someone who had mastered the Golden Body Technique?

Realizing she was in a dire situation, she gritted her teeth, getting close to Wang Xuan, prepared for a desperate move, planning to explode her internal organs to unleash her strongest thunder and blast through her opponent.

Unfortunately, she miscalculated. The moment she got close, Wang Xuan locked her with his arms, using brute strength to embrace her, causing her bones to crack as several broke instantly.

Under such pressure, her internal organs were nearly crushed. How could she resonate and unleash thunder?

With a sickening crack, Wang Xuan snapped her neck and tossed her aside.

Buzz!

A gust of air was sliced open, and a cold light slashed toward him. At Wang Xuan's current reaction speed and immense physical prowess, he couldn't evade it.

With a muffled thud, his shoulder was stained with blood as a gaping wound was opened.

This surprised him; even the Golden Body Technique hadn't withstood that cold light?

Behind him, a man named Zhuo Yang's pupils constricted. The lethal blow had failed to take down his opponent, sending shivers down his spine and a premonition of doom for the day.

In his hand, he held a short knife, from which the cold light erupted.

He activated it again, mysterious patterns appearing on the short knife, sending out another beam of light aimed at Wang Xuan.

This time, Wang Xuan was better prepared and dodged it. The cold light sliced through, knocking down two or three dozen towering ancient trees, demonstrating its incredible power!

Zhuo Yang's face went pale; he knew it was over. Today looked grim for him.

The short knife was personally refined by his ancestor, engraved with special runes, nearly a supernatural item. If discovered in the Secret Realm, it would raise disputes.

Because the external area was a competition beneath the supernatural level.

His short knife had somewhat crossed the line!

Of course, if he had to defend it, he could argue that it wasn't truly a supernatural object yet.

After Zhuo Yang launched the third beam of cold light, he discarded the short knife and turned to flee, as he could only unleash three strikes of nearly supernatural knife light.

Clang!

This time, Wang Xuan was more prepared. His internal organs resonated, and he put all his strength into a massive bolt of thunder, striking the knife light.

It must be said, that knife light was terrifying, actually not being completely obliterated, still flying forward.

Wang Xuan employed Zhang Daoling's body technique, his palm shining with light, secret power flowing, and crashed into the dim knife light, extinguishing it!

He did this intentionally to gauge the ultimate strength of the knife light, wanting to have a mental note of it, so he did not evade.

Boom!

Wang Xuan's internal organs shone, and the lightning struck the two slower ones, particularly one who had been struck before and was still numb, collapsing directly to the ground.

The other was caught by Wang Xuan, who delivered a finishing slap, causing him to cough up blood and fly away.

At this crucial moment, Wang Xuan held back, deciding to spare two of them for later use.

He fully pursued the man named Zhuo Yang, and soon a fierce battle erupted in the forest. This prominent young man with the Zhuo surname was killed by Wang Xuan, exploding in the woods.

Wang Xuan returned to clean up the battlefield, stripping both the living and the dead of their clothes. He chose the cleanest one to wear himself. He also collected various bottles, jars, and weapons, all of which he stored in the fragments of his blessed land.

On the body of the exploded Zhuo Yang, there was a special metal plate engraved with intricate patterns. Wang Xuan interrogated the two captives, one of whom was the opponent who had previously jumped into the river to escape, and his hands were still riddled with twenty-two bloody holes. However, communication proved impossible; while Wang Xuan could catch their thoughts, the other party lacked a mental domain, making it impossible for them to understand him.

In the end, he only gathered that there was more than one group of people, and they were competing in the Secret Realm, with the victors destined for great fortune. Frustrated by the difficulty of communication, he eventually plugged the mouths of both captives and took them closer to the extraordinary lair of the mountain turtle.

He observed the mountain turtle from a distance, patiently waiting for it to leave its lair to hunt. Turning to the captives, he said, "You've had enough rest, right? You can run now. I'll give you a chance in a bit." Wang Xuan left them only their underwear, just like he had earlier, leaving them bare-chested.

He tied them up and brought them outside the extraordinary lair of the mountain turtle, quickly picking four yellowed fruits from a small tree that looked like it was made of brass. "Mountain turtle, you want to eat me? I won't hold it against you; I'll just take a few of your fruits."

Wang Xuan noticed that there were three fruit stems left on the small tree, and as he spoke, he saw that three fruits had ripened and been eaten by the mountain turtle itself. "Alright, let's all escape; perhaps we will meet again!"

Wang Xuan released the two captives and took off running. He wasn't afraid of anything, but he didn't want to share the risk with them if something went wrong. He dashed toward the Mist area, running frantically, as the mountain turtle was surprisingly fast; if it detected him, there would be danger.

In fact, an accident did happen. The mountain turtle returned quickly after its meal, roaring as it crazily chased after him. As a result, a silver bear was startled awake and soared into the sky. It spotted Wang Xuan and the two bare-chested individuals running away.

It thought the earlier intruder to its lair was a bare-backed human, so it pounced directly on one of the captives. Wang Xuan glanced back, contemplating that if the two hadn't attracted the bear's attention, it probably wouldn't have been able to catch up to him. But there was indeed some risk.

As for the mountain turtle, he had already left it far behind. He plunged into the Mist area and began to gulp down the demon fruits, which were sweet and sour, with plenty of juice, and tasted quite good, filling his mouth with rich fruit fragrance.

His body gradually heated up, emitting a faint glow. Especially when he truly stepped into the desolate land where nothing grew, his body felt as though it was being torn apart, and the terrifying experiences from before resurfaced. This time, they were even more intense.

Wang Xuan endured the pain, undaunted, and charged toward the blue shimmering lake. Everything unfolded as it had in his previous experiences—the platform appeared…

Until he reached the end of the azure sea, with golden lights sparkling, and a bamboo boat was about to emerge from the Mist.

Wang Xuan smiled; he was about to meet again, which also meant he was on the verge of significantly increasing his strength.

"Strange, someone has successfully broken in again. This life planet is truly extraordinary; after hundreds of years of silence, it has started to consecutively produce extraordinary beings, stepping onto the path of the Secret Realm."

The ferryman had just been asleep and, upon waking, felt a strong sense of realization. He wondered if this being was also unique, recalling the last one that had dared to provoke the Red-Robed Fairy, which had left a deep impression on him.
