Chapter 233: Beast Tribe Envoy
“You figured it out! I am indeed not a Tribulation stage cultivator; I have already ascended to become an Immortal,” Li Xiaojun nodded lightly and said.
As he spoke, he emitted a trace of immortal pressure.
Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, Chu Xiong quickly bowed respectfully and said, “Senior, I didn’t expect you to be an Immortal. I apologize for my earlier rudeness, please do not hold it against me.”
Chu Xiong’s expression showed utmost respect.
At the same time, he felt relieved that he hadn’t acted foolishly before.
“Chu Ling’er pays respects to the Senior.” Seeing her father bow respectfully to Li Xiaojun, Chu Ling’er quickly followed suit.
“There is no need for such formalities,” Li Xiaojun waved his hand.
“Senior, since you have already become an Immortal, why haven’t you ascended to the Immortal Realm? Why come to the secret realm? As far as I know, it is impossible for there to be a passage to the Immortal Realm within the secret realm,” Chu Xiong said to Li Xiaojun.
“Well! I have my own opportunities,” Li Xiaojun did not intend to explain further.
“Senior, please forgive me. I was too curious,” Chu Xiong quickly apologized.
He was merely intrigued as to how Li Xiaojun, an Immortal, entered the secret realm.
It is widely known that after Late Tribulation stage cultivators undergo the immortal tribulation, they would immediately be guided to ascend to the Immortal Realm and could not possibly enter a secret realm.
Additionally, one cannot undergo the immortal tribulation within the secret realm; therefore, one cannot become an Immortal there.
Since Li Xiaojun did not achieve his immortality in the secret realm, he must have done so outside.
What puzzled Chu Xiong was why Li Xiaojun did not go to the Immortal Realm after becoming an Immortal.
Of course, since Li Xiaojun was unwilling to share, he did not dare to pry further.
“City Master Chu, oh…”
Just as Li Xiaojun was about to continue asking Chu Xiong some questions, suddenly, a fierce attack struck the Grand Formation outside Hulong City, and the entire formation shattered.
As everyone in Hulong City felt the attack on the formation, their faces changed dramatically.
Chu Xiong’s face also turned grave.
He quickly released his divine sense, and a look of horror appeared on his face.
Li Xiaojun also instantly sent out his divine sense.
He then saw two enormous beast tribe creatures looking down at the humans with a condescending gaze.
In Li Xiaojun’s perception, the two beasts displayed strength at the Late Human Celestial level.
“Senior, I will handle this,” Chu Xiong said with a serious expression as he rapidly left and flew outside.
“To the two Immortal Envoys, may I ask why you are attacking our Human Race’s defensive formation? We have not offended you, have we?” Chu Xiong respectfully inquired of the Late Human Celestial beasts.
At the same time, two figures shot up from the ground and flew to Chu Xiong’s side.
These two individuals were early Tribulation stage cultivators, presumably two of Chu Xiong’s half-brothers.
Upon hearing Chu Xiong’s words, the two Late Human Immortal beasts did not respond but instead released their divine sense to swiftly scan all the people present.
At this moment, countless people felt their bodies invaded by powerful divine sense.
At the same time, in the sky, the two Late Human Immortal Realm Beasts finally spoke.
“Everyone stay still and release your divine sense for us to inspect; otherwise… you will die.”
As the beast spoke, it swiftly launched an attack.
Those who used their divine sense to resist the beasts’ inspection were quickly killed by the two beasts.
Moreover, those who prepared to activate their marks to leave the secret realm were also the first to be killed by the two beasts.
Seeing this situation, everyone immediately became clever and cooperated to allow the two Human Immortal Realm Beasts to inspect.
Li Xiaojun initially wanted to act but reconsidered and gave up.
For him, killing these two beasts was easy.
However, he had heard from Chu Xiong that all immortal-level beasts in this area belonged to forces and organizations.
For instance, the Human Immortal Realm Beast that Li Xiaojun killed had an Earth Immortal Beast managing it.
Above all the beasts, there was also a Roc at the late Celestial Immortal stage.
Li Xiaojun knew he could not compete against a late Celestial Immortal.
He guessed that the two beasts were probably investigating the killer of the immortal-level beasts he had slain.
Before reaching Hulong City, he had nearly annihilated all the immortal beasts within a thousand miles.
The higher-ranked beasts had already noticed the disappearance of the lower-ranked beasts, which is why they arranged for an inspection.
If Li Xiaojun were to kill the two Late Human Immortal Realm Beasts now, it would likely attract the attention of other beasts.
At that point, his presence could be exposed.
If the beasts discovered he was part of the Human Race, he would not worry for himself, but the other members of the Human Race in the secret realm would certainly be implicated.
Of course, Li Xiaojun feared most attracting the attention of the late Celestial Immortal beast, as he knew he could not defeat it. In that case, he would likely have to leave the secret realm in a very shameful manner.
The scanning speed of the two Late Human Immortal Realm Beasts’ divine sense was very fast.
Anyone who resisted their divine sense scanning would be ruthlessly eliminated.
Soon, Li Xiaojun felt a divine sense begin to scan his body.
Li Xiaojun did not resist and allowed the system to suppress his cultivation level to the Tribulation stage.
Quickly, the beast’s divine sense left Li Xiaojun.
One hour later, the two Late Human Immortal Realm Beasts finally left above Hulong City.
However, the immortal formation of Hulong City had been damaged by the two beasts and had lost its protective effect to shield everyone.
“Senior.”
Soon, Chu Xiong arrived next to Li Xiaojun.
Following him were two other middle-aged men.
These two were both early Tribulation stage cultivators, presumably Chu Xiong’s half-brothers.
“Senior.”
“Senior.”
Seeing Chu Xiong bow to Li Xiaojun, the two men quickly followed suit.
Just moments ago, Chu Xiong had communicated Li Xiaojun’s situation to the two, so they naturally understood how to behave.
“Senior, the two beasts just now weren’t investigating the death of King Qiu Rong, were they?” Chu Xiong quietly asked Li Xiaojun.
“It’s likely,” Li Xiaojun did not deny.
Just before, Li Xiaojun noticed that many beasts were inspecting different areas of the Human Race and beast tribe’s territory within his divine sense range.
He discovered that many Human Race formations and beast tribe formations had been broken by the beasts.
At that moment, Li Xiaojun realized there were actually so many members of the Human Race and beast tribe within a hundred million kilometers.
Previously, in his divine sense scans, he had seen no humans.
But now, he found more than a dozen Human Race cities, like Hulong City.
The reason he discovered so many was that the formations of the Human Race had been broken by the beasts.
Although the Human Race cities had concealed themselves well with formations, the beasts could not possibly be unaware, as the entire secret realm was under the beasts’ control.
“Senior, what do you plan to do now? Should you leave the secret realm?” Chu Xiong asked Li Xiaojun.
He felt that since Li Xiaojun had caused such a big commotion, the beasts would certainly investigate thoroughly.
So in his view, leaving the secret realm was undoubtedly the best choice for Li Xiaojun.
Though the secret realm could only be entered once every one hundred years, it was still better than being discovered by the beasts.
