He began his journey to becoming a true immortal by causing others to fail their tribulations.

I stood outside the cave for a moment, but because it was so dark inside, I couldn't see anything clearly, so the system map didn't show what was inside.

To avoid encountering Han Xi as soon as you enter, and prematurely revealing the "Doppelganger" card.

Xun Yan tightened his grip on the Thunderclap Sword and took out a Fire Spirit Talisman, holding it in his hand.

After confirming that the golden silk armor on his body was still functioning properly, he cautiously walked inside.

The temperature inside the cave was significantly lower than outside, and the wind blowing against your body made you feel even colder.

It's important to know that the physical abilities of those in the Qi Refining stage far surpass those of ordinary people.

If Xun Yan could feel the cold, then an ordinary person would be frozen into an ice sculpture in less than five minutes if they entered this cave.

But one thing is quite amazing: once inside the cave, even without lighting a fire or using any other light source, you can still see your surroundings clearly.

The cave was still completely bare; there were no plants, not even mushrooms or other fungi.

Many of the stones resemble bamboo shoots emerging from the ground, standing there quietly.

Even without close inspection, one can see scratch marks on many stalagmites, likely left by the claws of ferocious beasts.

After walking about a hundred meters, Xun Yan heard the sounds of fighting.

He quickly went over and soon saw the two sides fighting: Han Xi and two werewolves.

Although he was fighting two opponents at once and was injured, Han Xi still handled the situation with ease.

Furthermore, his movements and moves were very agile, and his attacks were swift, accurate, and ruthless. The two werewolves didn't even get a chance to touch the hem of his clothes before he slit their throats one after the other.

Looking at the two werewolf corpses on the ground, Han Xi snorted coldly.

He suddenly sensed something, turned around, and called out, "Who's there?"

Seeing that he had been discovered again, Xun Yan sighed inwardly:

"I haven't learned any techniques to conceal my presence yet. It's okay against people of lower cultivation levels, but if their cultivation level is similar to mine, it's very difficult for me to hide."

"I need to study hard after I get out, otherwise I won't even have a chance to be the sixth son."

With a sigh, Xun Yan walked out, smiling as he said, "Senior Brother Han, it's me!"

Upon seeing that it was Xun Yan, Han Xi visibly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, saying, "Junior Brother Xun, it's so good that you're alright."

Oh? Sure enough, Han Xi had encountered other outer disciples before.

But now he has no one else by his side, and it is very likely that they have all met their demise at his hands.

Although he was wary of Han Xi, Xun Yan still put on a very good show of politeness.

"Yes! Senior Brother Han, we clearly entered the secret realm together, but for some reason, when I opened my eyes, I was all alone."

Han Xi sighed and said, "Me too. This has never happened before, otherwise the elders would definitely have said something."

It was most likely caused by an unknown energy fluctuation. I don't know how the others are doing, but I hope everyone is alright.

Hearing the worry in Han Xi's tone, Xun Yan felt an urge to laugh.

He suppressed the urge to smile and asked, "Senior Brother Han, have you discovered anything along the way?"

"To be honest, I know a senior brother who has been to the Thunderous Secret Realm before and even found an opportunity there."

Unfortunately, he was unlucky and didn't have the key to unlock that opportunity, so he had to withdraw with regret.

He told me the location of that opportunity, and after my recent exploration, I'm certain we're not far from it.

As soon as Han Xi finished speaking, a series of wolf howls came from afar.

Judging from the voices, there are definitely a lot of werewolves coming this time.

"Not good! Those ferocious beasts aren't much of a threat when fighting alone, but they're dangerous in large numbers. Junior Brother Xun, let's retreat first."

"OK."

Although Xun Yan was still worried about Han Xi, it was better to make a quick getaway in the face of a large number of ferocious beasts.

Even if there's a 99% chance that Han Xi is a spy for the Hehuan Sect, he still keeps thinking about killing me.

But now is definitely not a good time to make a move, especially since Han Xi might still think he's a great actor.

He's completely fooling himself!

When Han Siu feels he has the upper hand and victory is assured, he becomes more composed.

They would also have some contempt for themselves, and would not dare to take action at such a critical juncture.

Just as Xun Yan had predicted, during their evacuation, Han Xi not only refrained from any underhanded tactics, but even ran ahead of them.

Perhaps he was thinking that he didn't need to run very fast, as long as he could run faster than Xun Yan.

But more importantly, it's very likely that he still thinks his acting skills are superb, and Xun Yan hasn't noticed anything at all.

The Misty Sect is, after all, a righteous sect, and the relationships among its members are relatively harmonious.

It is extremely rare for a fight to break out over a disagreement, or even for someone to be killed.

After running for a while, the two entered a stone chamber.

Han Xi even pushed a rock to block the door, so that even if the werewolves chased after them, they wouldn't be able to get in for a while.

While surveying his surroundings, Xun Yan casually put the Thunderclap Sword into his storage bag.

After resting for a while, Han Xi said, "This place was carved out by our senior brothers and sisters before, for later generations to rest or take refuge."

Xun Yan nodded and asked, "Senior Brother Han, how much do you know about the Thunderous Secret Realm?"

"I don't know much about it either. I only know that it suddenly appeared many years ago, and back then, the sect's higher-ups could easily enter the Thunderous Secret Realm."

However, after confirming that there was no major danger or terror, they decided to use the Thunderous Secret Realm as a training ground for outer disciples.

In addition to the original opportunities within the secret realm, some high-ranking members of sects will also throw certain items in.

These things are useless to them, but they are valuable to outer disciples. Whether they can obtain them depends on their luck and strength.

Han Xi paused briefly before continuing:

"Junior Brother Xun, I know where the greatest opportunity lies here. It was left behind by a certain senior, but to unlock that opportunity, we need a key."

"What key?" Xun Yan asked.

Han Xi pointed to Xun Yan's storage bag and said, "That's your Thunderclap Sword."

"Senior Brother Han, do you know this sword?" Xun Yan asked, feigning curiosity.

He remembered very clearly that Han Xi was not present when Peak Master Qin gave him the Thunderclap Sword.

Furthermore, given the strength of the two peak masters, it's impossible for Han Xi to hide without being discovered.

Han Xi smiled and said, "Junior Brother Xun, you helped someone activate their physique, attracted the two peak masters, and even received a reward from Peak Master Qin."

Many people witnessed this incident, and it spread like wildfire; naturally, I heard about it as well.

After explaining, Han Xi continued, "Junior Brother Xun, lend me the Thunderclap Sword while I go to activate the opportunity."

That senior brother said that when the opportunity arises, it will make quite a commotion, which will inevitably attract those ferocious beasts.

"I'll face them head-on, and you can ambush them from behind. Once we've dealt with those ferocious beasts, we'll split the spoils fifty-fifty, what do you say?"
