Perfect: Many children, many blessings! Join the chat group!

Outside the secret.

The golden gate above Tianyuan City had closed, leaving only a halo of light slowly rotating.

The elders of the various ancient sects gathered in twos and threes, some with their eyes closed in meditation, others talking in hushed tones, all waiting for news from the secret realm.

Qin Changsheng stood on the city wall, his hands behind his back, surrounded by several elders of the Qin clan. He smiled and chatted with the leaders of Ningjin Sect, Butian Sect, and Sword Valley. People were being sent out of the secret realm entrance from time to time, which he was already used to.

"—Whoosh!!!"

Just then, a figure suddenly flew out of the portal.

He was Di Chong, the successor of the Immortal Palace.

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, looking at the scene in disbelief.

"This...this is a successor of the Immortal Palace?"

"How did he get released? He'd only been inside for a short time."

"Impossible, right? He is the only successor of the Immortal Palace, who received the top inheritance of the Immortal Palace's Supreme Being. He also has the bloodline of the Nine-Headed Bird. His strength is enough to make him one of the best among his peers, far stronger than those ordinary first generation members. How could he be eliminated so quickly?"

"Could something have happened in the secret realm?"

"Something must have happened..."

The crowd whispered amongst themselves, their eyes filled with shock and bewilderment.

Qin Changsheng frowned slightly, secretly surprised.

He knew Di Chong's strength all too well; there were almost no people in the secret realm who could beat him like that.

Could it be that some extraordinary young prodigy has emerged in this golden age?

Standing before these cult leaders, Di Chong felt the gazes directed at him from all directions, his face burning with embarrassment.

He, a dignified successor of the Immortal Palace, was actually expelled not long after the secret realm opened.

This is an absolute disgrace.

"--snort!"

Di Chong snorted coldly, suppressing his anger. With a flash, he used the connection of the Beast Fang Life Talisman to rush into the secret realm once again.

The crowd outside the arena watched Di Chong's figure disappear and then looked at each other in bewilderment.

The elder of Ningjin Sect murmured meaningfully, "This Di Chong was clearly defeated by someone. Who has such great ability? How could they even defeat him?"

The old woman from the Patching Heaven Sect narrowed her eyes, seemingly lost in thought, and said, "For Di Chong to suffer such a great loss, there must be some young experts among those who entered the secret realm that we don't know about."

The elder of Sword Valley said calmly, "Interesting. It seems that this trip to the secret realm is much more exciting than we imagined."

Qin Changsheng remained silent, only staring at the slowly rotating golden portal, a vague unease creeping into his heart.

……

at the same time.

On the other side of the entrance to the secret realm.

Zhu Chen was leaning against a large rock, resting with his eyes closed.

He wasn't particularly concerned about what was happening in the secret realm, thinking that with Lin Dong and Luo Feng there, nothing serious would happen.

But the commotion at the entrance earlier also caught his attention.

He opened his eyes and saw Di Chong being escorted out.

"The successor of the Immortal Palace... was actually forced out?"

Zhu Chen was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized something.

He opened the chat group and, sure enough, saw that the group had already exploded with activity.

[Lin Dong: Hahaha~, did you all see that? We beat that Immortal Palace successor to a pulp, and in the end, Sixth Brother chopped off his head with one stroke and sent him out!] [Xiao Yan: Holy crap, you guys really killed that Immortal Palace successor? That's awesome...]

[Luo Feng: This guy isn't that great. If all six of us attacked together, he couldn't stop us at all.]

[Han Li: I only assisted from the sidelines; it was mainly my fifth and sixth brothers who did the work.]

[Qian Renxue: That person is indeed quite strong. If we hadn't attacked together, we probably wouldn't have been a match for him in a one-on-one fight.]

[Lin Dong: Who cares how strong he is? We've already knocked him out. It's a shame you weren't there, Fourth Brother, otherwise he could have taken a hit from your Buddha's Fury Lotus!]

[Xiao Yan: Damn it, that thing I have called the Buddha's Wrath Lotus... the Buddha's Wrath Lotus belongs to that guy Tang San.]

[Lin Dong: Oh right, I forgot. But speaking of which, why are the names of your two moves so similar? Isn't it a bit like plagiarism?]

[Xiao Yan: That was plagiarized from me, anyway, I chose it myself...]

Zhu Chen shook his head as he looked at the lively messages in the group chat.

Surprisingly, these guys actually managed to kill Di Chong.

but……

After thinking about it, he still sent a message in the group.

[Zhu Chen: Don't be too happy yet. That Di Chong is just a secondary body, not the main body.]

The group chat fell silent instantly.

[Lin Dong: What? A secondary body? Big brother, you're saying that wasn't Di Chong himself?]

[Zhu Chen: It is him, but not the main body. The successor of the Immortal Palace has cultivated a secret technique that allows him to create a secondary body. The one you are fighting is just that secondary body.]

[Luo Feng: Secondary body? What about his main body?]

[Zhu Chen: The main body should be elsewhere. Di Chong is a very cautious person and never puts all his eggs in one basket. The secondary body is out in the mortal world, while the main body is cultivating in the shadows. What you destroyed was only one of his clones. The real Di Chong is definitely much stronger than this secondary body.]

[Lin Dong: Holy crap, so we were all happy for nothing?]

[Han Li: No wonder I felt that although Di Chong was powerful, something was missing. It turns out he was just a secondary body...]

[Qian Renxue: If his secondary body is already this strong, then wouldn't his main body be even stronger?]

[Zhu Chen: The main body is certainly stronger, but you don't need to worry too much. Di Chong's main body usually doesn't act easily. Now that his secondary body has been knocked out, he should be more restrained. Continue to proceed according to plan and find the Thunder Emperor's inheritance first.]

[Lin Dong: Okay, let's go find the Thunder Emperor's inheritance first. After we find it, we'll settle accounts with that Di Chong's original body!]

[Luo Feng: Don't worry, brother, we know what we're doing.]

[Xiao Yan: Third Brother, remember to stream next time you fight the main body.]

[Han Li: Fourth Brother, you should refine the pills first. I'm about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage and need a lot of pills...]

[Xiao Yan: No problem, no problem, I'll arrange it for you right away!]

……

The group chat quickly became lively again.

However, during this casual conversation, Zhu Chen could sense a greater seriousness in Lin Dong and the others' tone.

It seems they took my words to heart.

After leaving the chat group, Zhu Chen looked up at the golden portal to the secret realm, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes.

Di Chong's secondary body was knocked out, so his main body will definitely take some action.

Given that guy's personality, he would never let this go after suffering such a huge loss.

If the other party comes to seek revenge, he can take action directly outside the secret realm!
So what if he's a descendant of the Immortal Palace? If he dares to come, he'll kill him!
