All Heavens: Becoming a Saint Begins in Deep Space

In the afternoon, they came to a large river and intended to cross it, but they discovered something unusual on the other side.

The slope on the opposite bank looked like it was covered in the glow of sunset, a deep red. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be fire ants, each as big as an egg, moving forward in a cluster, which was very uncomfortable for people with trypophobia.

"Something's not right. Something's clearly amiss deep within the secret realm this time," said a veteran who had been there many times.

Everyone felt something was wrong; this was only the first time they had entered the secret realm, yet so many unusual things had already happened.

They walked along the riverbank and found an open space to rest there in the evening.

This is a dense purple forest, with its branches covered with some kind of fruit. The fruit is very large, a dark purple, and looks delicious. If you peel off a little skin, juice will flow out and give off a pungent smell.

At this moment, an explorer shouted, "Whether you like it or not, you must apply this juice to your bodies. The ferocious beasts and birds of prey in the secret realm do not like this smell."

This stuff really smelled awful. Xiao Zhong and the others felt like they were going to their execution, and they had to endure the irritation as they applied it.

As evening fell and everyone prepared to go to sleep, Zhao Qinghan and the others quietly slept near Wang Xuan.

Late at night, Wang Li opened his eyes, mobilized his spiritual domain, and sensed his surroundings. He finally discovered that this accident came from the sky.

Were they a group of bat-men? Hovering more than a hundred meters in the air, they were all black, with human faces and animal bodies, fleshy wings growing from their backs, fierce-looking, with protruding fangs, and extremely ferocious.

Finally, these bat-like creatures hung upside down from the branches, spewing thick green mist from their mouths, which was undoubtedly some kind of toxin similar to a tranquilizer.

Wang Xuan and Lao Chen had already woken up.

In fact, many people in the camp did not dare to sleep. The unknown creatures in the darkness had not been eliminated, and most people in the camp could not sleep.

Many people noticed this scene and were both shocked and furious. They had already gone so far away, yet these monsters still chased after them.

This is treating them like food!

This time they finally saw the true face of this creature.

"Kill!" someone shouted.

The monsters fell silently, trying to drag some people away, and everyone sprang up, brandishing their long swords.

Puff puff!

Blood splattered everywhere, and the ferocious creature was chopped into several pieces on the spot.

Wang Li swung his sword repeatedly amidst the monster horde, annihilating all the monsters that surrounded him.

"A Grandmaster-level monster!" someone exclaimed, and then he was torn to pieces.

The swarm of bats had two leaders, a male and a female. They charged into the crowd and attacked with great ferocity, tearing many people to shreds.

"Surround them!" Zhao Qinghan shouted, ordering the new master Yang Lin to help the superhumans surround the monsters.

In order not to reveal his true strength, Lao Chen has been keeping himself within the realm of the Grandmaster.

Old Chen also rushed forward with the experts in the team, wanting to be the first to take down a monster.

Wang Li and Wang Xuan continued to wield their swords, clearing out a large number of monsters around them.

Everyone was too busy fighting the monster in front of them to notice them.

At that moment, one of the two leaders glanced over and rushed over instantly.

As a result, he was almost beheaded by Wang Xuan with a single blow, but in an instant, he flapped his wings and widened the distance between them.

Then, out of biological instinct, he looked at Wang Xuan and Wang Li with great apprehension.

Then, it suddenly flew towards Zhao Qinghan, and with a cry of surprise, Zhao Qinghan was captured.

Zheng Rui, who was closest to Da Zhao, turned pale. Faced with a master-level monster, he wanted to rescue him, but his body betrayed him, and he turned and ran away.

The monster did not kill Zhao Qinghan immediately. Instead, it flapped its huge fleshy wings and soared into the night sky.

Under the moonlight, Da Zhao's hair fluttered, her face was bloodless, and her eyes revealed helplessness. She looked straight down, opened her mouth, but said nothing, did not shout, and only let out a soft sigh.

She was kidnapped, and her last glance sent chills down everyone's spines; it possessed a poignant beauty.

Many people witnessed this scene and simply watched silently, feeling a sense of powerlessness.

Zheng Rui lowered his head, not daring to look. He had feelings for Zhao Qinghan, but faced with reality, he chose himself.

call!

Suddenly, a figure rushed up. Without any hesitation, Wang Xuan nimbly rushed to the top of a large tree, and then leaped into the air to grab Zhao Qinghan's ankle.

On the ground, many people exclaimed in surprise, never expecting that at the last moment, it would be that person with connections who risked their life to save them.

Many people recognized Wang Xuan, and they were all surprised, no longer believing that he was a pushover who only got into the expedition team because of his relationship with the quasi-grandmaster and Zhao Qinghan.

Realizing that there were still two people left, the group turned to look at Old Chen and Wang Li, seemingly trying to discern something from them.

The result surprised them; both Wang Li and Lao Chen only showed some worry on their faces, nothing more.

Zheng Rui's face was pale, filled with guilt and heartache. He knew that Zhao Qinghan was not going to survive; once someone was captured by a monster in the secret realm, no one could come back alive.

Under the night sky, the wind howled, and the monster flew at breakneck speed.

Wang Li and Lao Chen watched in stunned silence as Wang Xuan was taken away by the monster until he disappeared.

At this moment, the Grandmaster-level monster, which was still fighting with Lao Chen and the others in the crowd, had several large holes appear in its fleshy wings under Lao Chen's attack.

It let out a mournful roar, and with great effort, it flapped its wings. After withstanding more than a dozen sword flashes, it finally staggered and flew into the night sky.

At this moment, Old Chen wanted to throw the alloy sword in his hand, intending to pin it to the tree.

Suddenly, Wang Li mustered his strength and transmitted a message: "Old Chen, don't let it go. Wang Xuan and the others' lives depend on it."

Upon hearing this, Old Chen stopped what he was doing.

As the bats watched their leaders depart one after another, many of them also tried to fly away.

Seeing this, the crowd became even more ruthless, desperately clinging to the bat beast in front of them.

In the end, some members of the expedition had half their bodies severed, and others lost their arms.

Finally, after Wang Li beheaded the bat beast in front of him with a single strike, they weathered this wave of attacks.

Old Chen snapped out of his daze and said, "Count the number of people."

In the battle just now, Old Chen, a quasi-grandmaster, demonstrated considerable combat power, so his words naturally carried significant weight within the team.

Before long, the results came out: of the original eighty-odd people, only fifty-odd remained.

This was only the second day since they arrived in the secret realm, and more than half of the expedition team had already perished. The casualty rate was indeed quite high.

Many people in the group were silently wiping away tears. Most of them were novices who had come here dreaming of making a name for themselves in the Secret Realm, but reality told them that the Secret Realm was not an easy place.

A commotion began to rise in the crowd. Many newbies took out their distress signals and tried to leave. They formed a group and moved towards Zhong Qing and Zheng Rui.

Someone spoke up: "Something strange has happened deep within the secret realm. I think we should take this opportunity to leave, or we'll all die here!"

After the man finished speaking, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhong Qing, Zheng Rui, and the others.

They were the key figures in the group, and they could leave at dawn if they agreed.

Seeing that many people in the crowd were already considering leaving, Zhong Qing and Zheng Rui looked at Yang Lin, the new master of martial arts who was following them.

Yang Lin also looked grave and said, "Something has changed deep within the secret realm. Many creatures that originally lived there have come out. The danger level of the secret realm has increased by several levels."

"Given the current disunity, it's best to leave the secret place temporarily and make further plans later."

Seeing that Yang Lin had said this, Zhong Qing had no choice but to suppress her original thoughts and said, "Okay, we'll send out a distress signal and leave first thing tomorrow morning."

The people who had gathered around breathed a sigh of relief.

No one in the camp dared to sleep, fearing that another monster would come to ambush them, so they all forced themselves to stay awake all night.

Da Wu was not in good condition. She witnessed Wang Xuan being dragged into the depths of the forest by a monster in order to save Zhao Qinghan.

Then, as if she had just thought of something, she walked quickly toward Wang Li and Lao Chen, opening her mouth to ask them why they didn't go to rescue them.

Wang Li used his spiritual domain to transmit his voice, saying, "Don't worry, Wang Laoliu is fine. He's almost a Grandmaster, how could he possibly be involved in this?"
