40: Found you

The classification of Heaven-Rank Secret Realms, in addition to being defined by the strength of the exotic beasts within the Secret Realm, has another reason.

That is, after entering the Secret Realm, will they be teleported to a single, centralized location?

If not, then this Secret Realm can only be categorized as a Secret Realm below Heaven-Rank.

"Is this Nan Yu Mountain?"

Li Yao looked up at the azure sky.

There were still many flying exotic beasts in the air, and from time to time, the sounds of exotic beasts fighting could be heard.

It was indeed chaotic enough.

The appearance of Nan Yu Mountain seemed to have very little greenery; basically, with the naked eye, one could see large and small pits everywhere.

Although these caves hid many rich mineral resources, they also faced the risk of being attacked by exotic beasts.

However, those who could enter this Secret Realm generally weren't short on money.

So no one would rashly enter to mine for anything.

Gold, in this era, was still hard currency.

The forging of many treasures was inseparable from gold.

"Golden Armor Fire Ape, come out."

Li Yao slapped his Beast Master watch, and the Golden Armor Fire Ape crawled out from the summoning array.

It was still carrying the multi-functional mortar on its back.

Roar! Roar!

After coming out and feeling the breath of nature, the Golden Armor Fire Ape felt a little excited.

Finally, it could test the power of the mortar.

Testing it in the training ground of the villa area could easily lead to accidental injuries and destruction.

But in the Secret Realm, there was no need to worry.

"Golden Armor Fire Ape, you go and get accustomed to the power of this mortar first."

Roar! Roar!

The Golden Armor Fire Ape thumped its chest, clearly telling Li Yao that it was fine and everything was on him.

Picking up the mortar, after a genetic recognition process, the mortar could finally be used.

Aiming at a nearby hilltop, the Golden Armor Fire Ape pressed the launch button.

Bang!!

The powerful recoil, if it were a normal Marquis-level Beast Master, would certainly not be able to withstand it, and would inevitably be pushed back two or three steps.

But for the Golden Armor Fire Ape, this recoil was just right to bear.

It absorbed the Spiritual Qi from the Golden Armor Fire Ape's body, transforming it into a shell.

With a press of a finger, a crimson Spiritual Qi shell shot towards the nearby hilltop.

The speed was very fast, and in just three seconds, it successfully hit the hilltop.

A rumbling sound echoed.

That mountain peak, roughly estimated to be a thousand meters high, was directly blasted with a huge gap.

The moment the shell was fired, birds and beasts within several thousand meters of the surrounding area let out fearful cries and fled the area.

It must be said, the power was quite good.

With the Golden Armor Fire Ape's King-level strength, it could indeed perfectly unleash the power of this multi-functional mortar.

And this was only five-tenths of the mortar's power.

It had not been released to its maximum power value.

According to Li Yao's guess, if the Golden Armor Fire Ape fully charged the mortar, the entire hilltop would not just have a corner missing.

Instead, it would be directly obliterated.

"The power is decent, how much has been consumed?"

Roar! Roar!

The Golden Armor Fire Ape used its fingers to show a number.

Unfortunately, being unable to count, after counting with its fingers, it still wasn't enough.

At this moment, it suddenly remembered it still had its toes!

After a preliminary count, it showed Li Yao.

Li Yao nodded silently after seeing it.

If released at this power, the Spiritual Qi within the Golden Armor Fire Ape could sustain eighteen more shots.

However, this multi-functional mortar was not just a mortar; otherwise, why would it be called multi-functional?

"You try switching to other forms yourself."

Roar! Roar!!

The Golden Armor Fire Ape nodded excitedly, then took down the mortar from its shoulder, and with a shift in its thoughts and brainwaves, the mortar immediately transformed into a Gatling.

Hmm, a Gatling that was over twenty meters long.

....

Jiangdong City, Nanshan Secret Realm, outside the Nanyu Mountain Secret Realm.

A somewhat sickly-looking middle-aged man was registering.

His Rank strength was Commander-Level Beast Master.

He could barely enter the Secret Realm.

"This is an Earth-Grade Secret Realm, are you sure you want to enter?"

The sickly middle-aged man nodded, then entered the Secret Realm.

Upon seeing this, the guard soldier shook his head helplessly.

"This guy is actually a Commander-Level Beast Master, which is quite unexpected."

"Don't make fun of others; although he looks like he has kidney deficiency, he is a genuine Commander-Level Beast Master."

"If we had that strength, we wouldn't be guarding the gate here."

However, because it was an Earth-Grade Secret Realm, the number of people coming and going here daily did not exceed two hundred, so receiving them was relatively easy.

Unlike those Profound Level Secret Realms and Yellow-level Secret Realms.

The daily foot traffic there could be described as overflowing.

Upon entering the Secret Realm, the middle-aged sickly man finally stopped pretending.

The sickly man stood still, then slowly bent down.

Behind him, his white shirt suddenly bulged and ripped open!

A sharp claw emerged from within, tearing open the skin on his back and also ripping his clothes.

"My true form is still more comfortable."

What emerged from the sickly man's body was a Soul-Devouring Demon, a subordinate of the Pride Monarch.

After successfully invading the man's mental consciousness, it began to devour his internal organs.

Until now, it had finally completed the Fusion, perfectly lurking in the human world.

In the Universe, although the Demon Clan was one of the ten great races, they were very much disliked.

This was one of the reasons.

Breathing the fresh air, the Soul-Devouring Demon quickly returned to this body.

This was its body for walking in the human world, and it couldn't just be abandoned like this.

Following its inner thoughts, a summoning array quickly appeared before him.

The disgusting and brutal body of the Resentment Demon crawled out from the summoning array.

Its entire body was covered in eyeballs, enough to scare anyone with trypophobia.

This Resentment Demon was Wang Bushi, who had been transformed by the Pride Monarch.

The initial Wang Bushi had lost most of his memories, retaining only his resentment towards Li Yao.

After all, resentment was the main source of power for their Resentment Demons to grow stronger.

Each eye looked around, seemingly observing the surrounding environment.

And at this moment, the Resentment Demon seemed to have found its target.

Although its head had no eyes, it also had no nose, only a mouth full of sharp teeth slowly whispered: "Found, found you!!!"
