"Roar!"
There was a roar and blood gushed out. A young cultivator was sent flying backwards. His arm had been torn off, revealing his white bones. However, the severed arm was caught in the mouth of a Xiphodon Beast and swallowed into its stomach in an instant.
"Ah!"
Looking at the Xiphodon Beast pouncing at him again, the young cultivator endured the pain and used his other hand to take out a crystal ball and crush it.
Amidst the green and white light, the beast pounced at the young cultivator's position. However, all that was left was a pile of rubble stained with blood. The young cultivator had been teleported out of the secret realm in an instant.
The Xiphodon Beast let out an unwilling roar. Looking at the green and white light that had disappeared in an instant, it rushed back into the depths of the ancient forest.
Outside the secret realm, close to five hundred people had already been teleported out of the secret realm. Among these five hundred people, a third of them were heavily injured. Very quickly, the Gu Yuan Tribe members came to treat these injured cultivators and moved them to the side.
"It's only been half a day, and so many cultivators have been eliminated. Some of them are even heavily injured. Could this secret realm really be so dangerous?" A cultivator could not help but exclaim when he saw the bloody scene in front of him.
"I met a late-stage Two-star fierce beast. It's a Scarlet Thunder Storm Leopard with the bloodline of an Archean Great Beast. Its strength is actually stronger than a Perfect Blood Refining Realm cultivator. It chased me for over a hundred miles, and I had no choice but to crush the crystal ball."
A young genius at the peak of the late-stage Blood Refining Realm revealed a trace of unwillingness in his eyes. With his talent, he had passed the first two tests of the God of War Palace. In everyone's eyes, he had already passed the third test. He had never imagined that he would be forced out of the secret realm.
"In the secret realm, there are some strange beasts with the bloodline of an Archean Great Beast. These fierce beasts can definitely tear apart other fierce beasts of the same level. It's definitely difficult to obtain fierce beast points and pass the test. I just knew that the third test wouldn't be so easy!"
One by one, the cultivators who had been forced to withdraw from the trial in the Secret Realm had expressions of unwillingness in their eyes. It wasn't because they were weak, but because they had encountered stronger beasts. Every single vicious beast they had encountered in the Secret Realm had the strength to fight those with a higher cultivation level. Even those peak one-star vicious beasts had the strength of ordinary early-stage two-star vicious beasts in the outside world.
Wind Thunder Leopard, Single Horned Golden Python, Xiphodon, Armored Bull, Bloodthirsty Demon Eagle … The names of these strange beasts came out of the mouths of these young cultivators who were participating in the trial. Every single name caused the surrounding cultivators to be shocked.
"This test is too perverted. They're all mutated beasts. Killing one is fine, but if you want to obtain enough fierce beast points, you'll have to continuously kill a sufficient number of exotic beasts within three days. This is squeezing them to their limits!"
"Even if it's me, when faced with a fierce beast of the same level, I would have to retreat. Otherwise, I wouldn't easily provoke them. This secret realm is full of fierce beasts. I wonder how many people will survive after the test is over. Life and death are up to fate!"
Countless cultivators sighed. In front of them, there was a clear light shining from time to time. Young cultivators were sent out of the secret realm with terrified expressions.
Within a small area of the secret realm, there was already a faint blood mist. One could imagine the slaughter within.
"Husband, isn't this too harsh and bloody? If it continues like this, how many people will survive after three days?"
In the secret realm, under the same pavilion, Xiao Chen's figure flashed and appeared, immediately causing the woman in the pavilion to complain. At this moment, outside the pavilion, in the Cyan Light Mirror that Liu Li used to manifest, everything in the secret realm's trial field could be seen clearly.
After talking with Elder Shi, Xiao Chen ordered his clansmen to arrange Elder Shi's resting place. Then, he flashed into the space of the Seal of Mountains and Rivers, wanting to explore the secret realm's trial situation. He didn't expect to receive the complaints of his two lovely wives as soon as he entered the secret realm.
"That's right, husband. These cultivators are all geniuses who have passed the two tests. Although it's hard to say what their future achievements will be, it's very easy for them to become great warriors of the Heavy Building Realm with some training. But isn't it a pity to become food for the fierce beasts?"
Pinghua got up and gently snuggled up to Xiao Chen. In her heart, the great warriors of the Heavy Building Realm were an unattainable realm.
Gently patting Pinghua's shoulder, he led her into the pavilion and sat between the two women. Only then did Xiao Chen say softly, "With the great waves washing away the sand, only those that remain are the real gold. It is easy to nurture a Heavenly Building Realm cultivator, but it is extremely difficult to advance to a Venerable. Furthermore, it is even more difficult to advance from the Venerable Realm. My Gu Yuan Tribe does not lack ordinary Heavenly Building Realm cultivators. What we lack is a pillar that can support the tribe. What we need are Venerables and even stronger experts."
"Hunting fierce beasts in this secret realm trial is like raising poisonous insects. Only the remaining warriors who have gone through a round of killing are what husband needs. Only they are worthy of my War God Palace's nurturing."
"But husband, if these warriors return to their tribe in the future, wouldn't my Gu Yuan Tribe's efforts be in vain?" Hearing this, Pinghua couldn't help but show a hint of worry.
"Haha!"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen laughed loudly and said, "Husband, I established the War God Palace to spread martial arts. It's true that I have selfish motives. Moreover, the War God Palace educates everyone without discrimination. Regardless of whether it's a tribe or a wanderer, anyone can join. Moreover, today, Bai Ze and the Heaven Stairway Division are openly fighting for geniuses and recruiting warriors. This kind of thing will only happen more often in the future. Other tribes will also join in, but their methods will become more secretive."
"Husband!"
He gently patted the shoulders of his two lovely wives and gestured for them to listen to him. "Spreading martial arts, educating the vast wilderness, and spreading influence everywhere is the purpose of the War God Palace's existence. In the future, the War God Palace won't be able to reject the recruitment of geniuses from other tribes. However, don't forget that no matter which combat division these warriors join, as long as they walk out of the War God Palace, they will have a trace of kinship with us. When the time comes, the influence of my Gu Yuan Tribe will be brought to their tribe."
"Moreover, my Gu Yuan Tribe established the War God Palace. The pavilion closest to the water enjoys moonlight first. Those who receive training in the War God Palace will definitely be influenced by my Gu Yuan Tribe. As long as half of the geniuses are recruited by my Gu Yuan Tribe, over the years, it will also be a terrifying number. Compared to the other half, which will be divided among the other tribes, it will be enough to far surpass them."
Xiao Chen's words immediately made the eyes of his two wives light up.
"If that's the case, why don't you recruit all the wandering cultivators and young warriors from the combat divisions?"
"My Gu Yuan Tribe won't be able to advance any further in the future. We will definitely have to venture out of the wilderness and compete with the foreign tribes to spread our might. When the warriors from other tribes who join the War God Palace to cultivate return to the tribe and learn about the strength of my Gu Yuan Tribe, what do you think they will choose?"
Xiao Chen kept sharing his thoughts with his two lovely wives, which immediately caused them to exclaim in surprise.
"No wonder you set up the Martial Path Stele Forest outside the War God Palace. Is it to attract those wandering cultivators?"
"That's right!"
Xiao Chen nodded gently and continued, "The Martial Path Stele Forest outside the War God Palace is my second plan. There are countless wandering cultivators in the wilderness, and there is no lack of powerhouses among them. There are several middle-grade Earth-level martial arts hidden in the Martial Path Stele Forest. Warriors can obtain the inheritance by chance. When that time comes, it will definitely attract a large number of wandering cultivators to gather at my Gu Yuan Tribe."
"Then, my Gu Yuan Tribe can take the opportunity to recruit some wandering cultivators for the tribe's use!" The next moment, Flower Picking Flower continued Xiao Chen's words.
"Yes, my Gu Yuan Tribe's current foundation is still too weak compared to those tribes that have thousands or even tens of thousands of years of history. We must think of all ways to improve the tribe's strength. In addition to increasing the cultivation of the warriors in the tribe, we can also recruit some powerful wandering cultivators from outside. This is also a feasible method. We can do both at the same time!"
At this moment, on the cyan mirror that was formed by Azure Glass, the battle in the secret realm had reached an extremely bloody state. These mutated beasts that had been captured by Xiao Chen had been trapped in the secret realm for so many days. It was difficult for them to even have enough food to fill their stomachs every day. This time, a large number of young warriors had suddenly entered the realm, which could be said to have completely stimulated the bloodthirst of these mutated beasts.
In the secret realm, a simple and honest young man riding a Golden-Patterned Demonic Bear was carefully traversing through a pile of rocks. This young man called Huang Xiaotian could be said to have a confidence that other trial warriors did not have.
This was because the Golden-Patterned Demonic Bear he was riding was a descendant of a savage beast. It was also a mutated beast that was at the peak of the Two-star realm. Most of the mutated beasts in the secret realm were no match for this Demonic Bear. With this peak Two-star Demonic Bear, although Huang Xiaotian was not like a fish in water in the secret realm, he did not have to run for his life while being chased by the mutated beasts.
Huang Xiaotian had the strength of a late-stage Blood Refining Realm warrior, so he needed to obtain 800 fierce beast points to pass the test.
"After killing one more late-stage Two-star fierce beast, I will have reached the standard to enter the Palace of War Gods. Same rules. I will hide on your back. You attract the attention of other fierce beasts, and I will take the opportunity to kill them!"
He gently patted the Demonic Bear's head, causing it to turn its head and roar at Huang Xiaotian on its back.
Buzz!
Following this, a jet-black light shone from Huang Xiaotian's body, enveloping his entire body. The young man's entire body was attached to the Demonic Bear's back. His original human Qi was concealed, and it seemed like his entire body had become one with the Demonic Bear.
Roar!
In an instant, the Demonic Bear let out a roar and charged into the ancient forest at the side.
