CHAPTER 721: HUNDREDFOLD CONSUMPTION

Time is now down to only two days, and the secret realm is about to close again.

In the upcoming closure, various spatial rifts within the secret realm will become even more active, making survival utterly impossible.

The void passageways arranged by the Demon Race alliance have taken shape, with one passageway piercing through the void gradually fading away.

However, what puzzles Wang Hong somewhat is that this area of distress is filled with spatial rifts. Even if the Demon Race manages to summon reinforcements from the outside, how could they possibly walk out of the secret realm?

Contemplating this, Wang Hong couldn't help but shake his head with a smile. Since others can construct passageways from the endless void, walking out of the secret realm should be much simpler.

Nevertheless, in the time to come, the Little Yuan Realm is likely to undergo significant changes.

Currently, various external forces have entered the Little Yuan Realm. It's impossible to believe that their purpose here is genuinely to assist one side.

Wang Hong senses that these external forces must have undisclosed intentions for entering the Little Yuan Realm.

Anyway, upon returning this time, he must vigorously develop the strength of the Great Chu Immortal Nation to ensure survival in any future turmoil.

During their journey towards the exit together, they encountered many individuals, including demons, sorcerers, abyss dwellers, and cultivators from various races.

After a month of exploration in the secret realm, everyone has gained something to varying degrees.

Hence, they encountered quite a few treasure hunters along the way. Fortunately, they didn't encounter particularly formidable opponents. They even managed to kill several adversaries and earn some resources.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, I am grateful to have traveled with you. Otherwise, I truly wouldn't know if I could make it out alive," Bai Wushuang occasionally flattered Wang Hong.

Mainly through these battles, Bai Wushuang gained a profound understanding of Wang Hong's strength.

And what he said wasn't entirely false. Treasure hunters don't just attack anyone they see; they usually assess the strength of their opponents beforehand.

The reason they were robbed multiple times along the way is mainly because Bai Wushuang's current pitiful appearance, full of scars, is too tempting. Anyone would think they could easily kill him.

He even encountered a Demon Clan member at the Intermediate-grade of the fifth tier who, relying on his own strength, attempted to rob the two of them, only to be slain by Wang Hong in the end.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, no need to be polite. If it weren't for so many treasure hunters, how could we have gained so many treasures?"

In their counterattacks against these treasure hunters, they naturally also harvested a large amount of loot.

Each Cultivator at the Soul Transformation level possesses considerable wealth, akin to a moving treasure trove.

Apart from the Human Clan, Wang Hong didn't even spare the enemies' corpses.

Many useful materials can be extracted from these corpses, and the remaining waste can be given to the demon-hunting tree in their space.

He has tested that both Demon Race and savage tribe members, as long as they have flesh and blood, can be absorbed by the demon-hunting tree.

Although the strength of the Great Chu Immortal Nation has greatly improved now, the majority still consist of Foundation Building Cultivators or second-tier warriors.

The Essence Core Pill plays a significant role in enhancing the strength of the entire nation.

As they were talking, they noticed a cultivator surnamed Li approaching from another safe passageway leading towards the exit.

The five of them entered the secret realm together, encountering a pursuit by three fully accomplished fifth-tier Demon Race members. Ye, surnamed cultivator, was killed by one of the Demon Race members.

Daoist Qin, who was relatively warm-hearted, is missing, his life or death unknown.

Wang Hong remembered that one Demon Race member chose to pursue the cultivator surnamed Li. Surprisingly, he also managed to survive, and Wang Hong wondered how he escaped.

Bai Wushuang greeted Li from afar, and Li responded with a smile. The three of them happened to walk together towards the exit.

They smoothly passed through the exit and reappeared in the same canyon.

Stepping into the canyon, Wang Hong deeply exhaled, feeling relieved all over.

Throughout this month, utmost caution was necessary at every moment. Even a slight negligence could lead to potential death.

"Your Majesty!"

Seeing Wang Hong emerge from the secret realm, Wood Fairy flew cheerfully to his side.

As a witch capable of arousing desire in people, even though she didn't deliberately display this innate skill at the moment, it still drew the attention of many cultivators nearby, sparking various fantasies.

However, everyone here was an old monster with centuries of cultivation experience and wisdom, and no one acted outlandishly upon seeing a woman.

"Fellow Daoist Wang is quite fortunate. Let's part ways here!" Bai Wushuang bid farewell to Wang Hong with a grin.

"Fellow Daoist Bai, Fellow Daoist Li, until we meet again!" Wang Hong also bid farewell to the two.

However, after the two walked away, he faintly overheard Li being addressed by someone as Fellow Daoist Han.

He had always felt that this cultivator surnamed Li was mysterious, probably hiding his true identity.

In the Cultivation World, many cultivators prefer to conceal their true identities, so this was nothing out of the ordinary.

After leaving the entrance of the secret realm, Wang Hong returned to his residence in Fallen Fairy City with Wood Fairy.

After resting for a whole day at home, he entered the Space once again.

It wasn't convenient to check inside the secret realm before, so since the last time he exited, he hadn't come in to inspect.

He had thrown countless Spirit Stones into the Space last time, totaling over ten million low-grade Spirit Stones.

According to the previous ratio of land increase after absorbing Spirit Stones, it should have increased by at least a hundred mu of land.

However, upon entering the Space and carefully inspecting it, Wang Hong confirmed that the Space had only increased by a little over one mu, which was a hundred times less than expected.

Having absorbed so many Spirit Stones, the surplus Spiritual Energy shouldn't have vanished into thin air.

He immediately thought of the small immortal mountain that caused changes in the Space.

Walking to the center of the Space, at first glance, the immortal mountain still looked the same as before, with no changes whatsoever.

However, being an Immortal Cultivator with a powerful Divine Sense, he could sense that the immortal mountain had grown slightly taller than before.

"Could it be that such a slight increase consumes so many Spirit Stones?"

Wang Hong looked at the immortal mountain in front of him with some doubt. It still appeared small.

However, the two immortal plants he had planted on the immortal mountain had undergone some changes.

The immortal fruit branch, previously planted in soil outside the immortal mountain, had been flourishing for over a decade but hadn't rooted or sprouted.

At this rate, it would take at least hundreds of years for it to root and sprout.

However, after being transplanted onto the immortal mountain, it had started to grow in just a few years.

It was evident that immortal plants in areas of the Space without immortal aura could survive but grew extremely slowly.

Similarly, the celestial grass, when transplanted onto the immortal mountain, had also begun to grow.
