40: With all-out effort, the secret realm closes.

"Hehe, perfect timing. Junior Brother Gu, Junior Sisters, I'll start the slaughter first."

Seeing the Yuntian Sect crowd make their move.

Night Owl was extremely excited. He quickly took out his bloodthirsty sword and charged toward the attacking Yuntian Sect disciples.

Since there were many people this time, he dared not be careless.

After all, even ants can kill an elephant, so he prepared to go all out.

"Slaughter True Scripture, Forbidden God Mist!!"

Night Owl roared, and incredibly bright red mist surged from his body, enveloping the hundred-plus Yuntian Sect disciples.

"Aaaahhh!!!"

Immediately, miserable and inhuman screams echoed from within.

"Hmph, Senior Brother Ye, I won't be worse than you."

Seeing Night Owl handle over a hundred Heaven Soul Peak Yuntian Sect disciples by himself.

Gu Chen revealed a look of unwillingness to admit defeat.

He also took out his void sword, rose into the air, and quickly formed several profound hand seals.

"void sword Art, Sky-Filling Rain!!"

Immediately, dense sword qi surged from the void sword.

Like raindrops, they struck the Yuntian Sect disciples below.

"Aaaahhh!"

In just one exchange, twenty or thirty Yuntian Sect disciples were instantly killed.

The remaining ones were all injured to varying degrees.

"Junior Sister Qin, let's go too!!"

"Alright, Senior Sister Mu."

Mu Xueqing and Qin Fei'er seized the opportunity.

They quickly took out their weapons and attacked the still-frightened Yuntian Sect disciples.

"Spatial Strangulation!!"

"Profound Ice Palm!!"

The duo's ultimate moves.

Instantly killed seven or eight Yuntian Sect disciples in front of them.

The remaining Yuntian Sect disciples were terrified, their faces full of fear as they frantically fled backward.

While constantly shouting crazily.

"Freaks! These people are all freaks!!"

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!!"

"Mama! Mama, where are you? Hurry up and save me!"

The group flew backward desperately, like maddened bulls.

Especially Senior Brother He, who had just threatened to extract the souls of Gu Chen and his companions, ran incredibly fast.

He was already close to flying out of the plain.

He hadn't planned to attack initially, intending to observe the battle from the back.

In his mind.

These hundreds of Yuntian Sect disciples could drown Gu Chen and his companions just by spitting on them.

But he never expected.

In just one exchange, the Yuntian Sect disciples suffered heavy losses, and their Dao hearts were shattered by fear.

As a smart person.

Faced with this situation, he naturally had to flee immediately.

He needed to save his own life first.

After all, Gu Chen and his companions were truly terrifying.

A hundred times more terrifying than rumored.

They instantly killed so many Yuntian Sect disciples with a single move.

If he had charged in the first wave, he probably would have been instantly killed on the spot too.

Their numbers weren't even enough for the opponents to kill.

What's the point of seeking revenge now?

"Hmph, where do you think you're going? Leave all your Storage Rings behind!!"

Gu Chen roared angrily and chased after the fleeing Yuntian Sect disciples.

He had finally caught hundreds of fish, and now more than half had escaped. How could he accept that?

"Senior Brother Gu, we'll help you."

Mu Xueqing utilized her Spatial Power, taking Gu Chen with her to hunt down the escaping Yuntian Sect disciples.

"Hiss, damn it, where did these monsters come from? How can they be so terrifying?"

Looking at the disappearing figures of Gu Chen and his companions.

The Rogue Cultivators hiding nearby watching the battle were so shocked their lower bodies trembled.

They had already prepared to mourn Gu Chen and his companions.

Unexpectedly.

Gu Chen and his companions immediately went all out.

They routed the hundreds of Yuntian Sect members almost instantly.

Are they even human? Are they really only Heaven Soul Peak?

Some Heaven Soul Peak Rogue Cultivators.

They even felt that all their years of cultivation had been wasted.

With the same cultivation level.

Others killed those in the same realm as easily as slaughtering pigs and dogs.

While they themselves were reduced to pigs and dogs. The Heavenly Dao is truly unfair.

Not long after.

Gu Chen and Mu Xueqing returned to the bonfire.

After continuous pursuit and slaughter.

They had eliminated most of the Yuntian Sect disciples.

Although a small portion escaped, their harvest was considerable.

Night Owl had also finished his battle.

He was sitting by the bonfire, eating roasted meat.

Beside him lay over a hundred Storage Rings.

Seeing Gu Chen and the two women return.

He tossed the Storage Rings to Gu Chen.

"Junior Brother Gu, you and Junior Sister Qin divide these," Night Owl said calmly.

"Hehe, thank you, Senior Brother!" Gu Chen, looking happy, accepted the Storage Rings.

He started dividing the spoils with Qin Fei'er—oh wait, the war trophies.

"Come, Junior Sister Qin, one for you, one for me, one for you, one for me."

Gu Chen took out a handful of Storage Rings, not bothering to check what was inside.

He directly gave one to Qin Fei'er, and then placed one next to himself.

What they ended up getting depended entirely on luck.

Soon, the two had evenly divided the Storage Rings.

"Let's go, Senior Brother Ye, Junior Sisters. No one dares to come now, and the Secret Realm is about to close. Let's leave."

After dividing the items, the group remained where they were, eating roasted meat for a day.

They didn't even encounter a single fly.

Seeing that the Secret Realm was about to close, they flew toward the exit.

The Desolate Secret Realm is only open for a short period of three days from start to finish.

If they didn't leave within three days, the Secret Realm would pull them into the Spatial Turbulence, resulting in a near-certain death.

Outside the Secret Realm.

The scene had already exploded into chaos.

A large number of Rogue Cultivators walked out of the Secret Realm alive and were discussing the events inside nearby.

"Did you hear? Most of the Yuntian Sect disciples who entered the Secret Realm this time were killed."

"Hiss, that can't be true. Only Yuntian Sect disciples kill others; who would dare to kill Yuntian Sect disciples?"

"Pfft! You're thinking too small, aren't you? Just because it didn't happen before doesn't mean it won't happen now. Four ferocious individuals appeared in the Secret Realm this time and slaughtered hundreds of Yuntian Sect disciples, ka-ka."

"Holy crap! Four people slaughtered hundreds of Yuntian Sect disciples? Aren't you just bragging?"

"It's true, it's true! We all saw it. The scene was indescribably brutal."

The group, gathered near the Secret Realm, was talking excitedly, spitting everywhere.

They completely forgot that a terrifying Elder leading the Yuntian Sect team was standing nearby.

"Elder Liu, these trash dare to publicly expose the shortcomings of our Yuntian Sect. I'll go eliminate them," Senior Brother He said angrily, standing next to the Yuntian Sect's Elder in charge.

He was hunted down like a stray dog by Gu Chen and his companions, only barely managing to escape the Secret Realm.

Now these trash Rogue Cultivators dared to discuss the matter in front of him.

This is utterly intolerable.

"Slap!"

Before Senior Brother He could make a move.

Elder Liu delivered a hard slap across his face and roared, "Shut up, you piece of trash! Hundreds of people were killed by four individuals, and you still have the nerve to be angry?"

Elder Liu was currently consumed by rage.

So many disciples had been killed under his watch.

He didn't know how he would explain this to the Elder Council and the Yuntian Sect Master.

He would definitely be punished upon returning this time.

Compared to the gossiping Rogue Cultivators, he hated Senior Brother He and these disciples even more.

Over four hundred people were slaughtered by four individuals—they were utterly useless.
