Chapter 500: Chapter 500: Treasures Everywhere
Granted, the secret realm is riddled with treasures, but there are so many people here too! With the combined forces of the Holy City and the Eastern Regions, there must be close to seven or eight hundred people!

With all these people rushing in together to grab things, wouldn’t it be chaos?

Consequently, everyone had to rush their actions, laggards would not be tolerated. They all were focused on rushing into the realm as quickly as possible to explore, loot treasures, and seize resources!

Jiang Xiaobai and his group, were thinking the same thing, however, their pace wasn’t very fast and they were lingering behind a bit.

It was something Jiang Xiaobai had told his comrades before setting off. The aim was straightforward, to avoid attracting the hatred of others who went in first.

This secret realm exploration included the forces from the Holy City, if one wished to amass fortune, they had to do it stealthily and without causing a commotion!

Fortune made in silence is the best approach!

Hence, it was only after the bulk of the people in front had entered the secret realm that Jiang Xiaobai and his group stepped inside.

Jiang Xiaobai, however, had underestimated one thing.

Once you crossed the threshold of the secret realm, you were transported to an entirely different world.

What he hadn’t expected was that this realm shifted active bodies whimsically, unlike the Mad Demon Secret Land.

The exact locations they appeared varied, the people in their surroundings were scattered and transported to other places throughout the realm!

Luckily, after the secret realm closed everyone would be forcibly expelled, otherwise, the people transported far away would have troubles finding the exit!

Jiang Xiaobai, at the moment, was silently sinking into the lake water.

He had a question in his mind.

Why did every instance of whimsical teleportation results in him appearing over a lake?

Then, without paying attention, he would fall and sink to the bottom of the lake.

This was just too ridiculous!

However, Jiang Xiaobai was used to it now. After he was silent in the lake water for a while, he urgently rushed out.

The first order of business was obviously to survey the environment, the body of water he was in was not a large lake, it was more like a small pond.

The shore was not far from the edge. Jiang Xiaobai promptly flew over to it.

Next, he hurriedly tried to contact Ao Yan and others, but due to the peculiar circumstances of the secret realm, the messaging tokens were entirely useless, all messages fell on deaf ears.

“This is odd indeed, there are only seven days total, could it be that I would spend more than half of that time just finding my teammates?”

Jiang Xiaobai muttered to himself, he was just hoping that the secret realm wasn’t too big, otherwise tracking his teammates would be a troublesome task.

Just as he was preparing to leave, Jiang Xiaobai’s footsteps suddenly halted, and he looked toward the placid surface of the pond.

Subsequently, he expressed his divine senses into it, but didn’t find any traces of life. However, inside this pond, there was an odd fluctuation.

In the end, a surprised smile appeared on Jiang Xiaobai’s face!

“Are these divine stones? And in such a pile?”

Jiang Xiaobai was brimming with excitement, he had just entered the secret realm and stumbled upon such profit?

Divine stones! They were rarities even in Holy City. The celestial energies they contained had astonishing effects!

Anyone would appreciate having these!

Without any hesitation, Jiang Xiaobai rushed straight into the pond, and got to the bottom to find piles and piles of divine stones, all radiating a milky-white glow!

He didn’t hesitate at all and gathered them all into his pouch. Upon counting, he discovered that he had collected over a thousand stones!

“That’s a bit of a fortune, the prime concern now is to find Ao Yan and the others.”

Chuckling lightly, Jiang Xiaobai surged out from the water surface, selected a direction and dashed forward.

Others who had just entered the realm too could find treasures everywhere!

There were spirit herbs, rare versions of them along with precious materials and so forth.

Some were even able to find spirit fruits!

These were treasures that formed naturally between heaven and earth, with varying effects!

Of course, while there were good things, there were bad things too, within this realm space, there were the “Indigenous beasts” of this land!

Some people, as soon as they appeared, found themselves surrounded by savage beasts. The lucky ones quickly fled, while the others, with bad luck, were instantly cut to pieces where they stood.

The beasts here were extremely ferocious!

…

After who knows how long, Jiang Xiaobai had been moving at high speed, but he hadn’t spotted anyone, leave alone his teammates!

“Weird, is this secret realm space really that large?”

Murmuring to himself, Jiang Xiaobai’s divine sense sensed fluctuations up ahead and he hurriedly pursued it.

He saw two cultivators fighting, next to them lay a beast deceased, the size of a small hill.

Looking closer, next to the beast’s carcass, there was a fruit glowing with red light.

Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes instantly glossed over.

“Illusory Spirit Fruit!”

These were treasures, they could boost the strength of one’s soul, far more valuable than a Ghost Mother Flower!

With such objects, the refining of a yuan soul would definitely be greatly aided.

Plus, there wasn’t just one Illusory Spirit Fruit, but a dozen or more. Jiang Xiaobai took a sweeping glance, noted that all the fruits were ripe!

He could eat them as soon as he got them!

“Nice, there are indeed treasures everywhere in this place. This Illusory Spirit Fruit, I’ll take it for myself!”

Jiang Xiaobai smirked lightly.

What did he need the most right now?

Obviously, it was a boost in strength, and the prerequisite of strength enhancement was the sevenfold refining of his yuan soul!

Only through this could he integrate the forces of the seven laws.

So, anything that helped his yuan soul, Jiang Xiaobai would absolutely not let it pass.

The two fighting individuals, only appeared to be at a nascent stage of crossing tribulations, probably men from the Holy City.

The two were in a bloody battle, both suffering injuries. Jiang Xiaobai had it easy to solve them all under these circumstances.

Then he immediately drew his treasured sword, Daobao, and tunneled out from his hiding spot right under the two men.

“Witness my move, Thousand Year Kill!”

There was a sudden roar as Jiang Xiaobai emerged from the ground. Originally the aim was to defeat the enemy by catching them off guard. Unfortunately, the enemy shifted a little, altering the angle.

With one slash, his sword, Daobao, pierced through the man’s thigh!

“Ah!”

A shrill cry of shock and anger rang out. The man wanted to react, but it was already too late, Jiang Xiaobai’s wrist flipped and following the wound, his sword Daobao, cut off that man’s leg.

Daobao’s might, was not something a cultivator who was crossing the tribulations could withstand!

Seeing that someone was attacking them, the pair were shocked, they even made a joint attack targeting Jiang Xiaobai in the first instance.

Unfortunately, Jiang Xiaobai, now, disposing of these people was as easy as killing dogs.

“Nine Days Star Fall Swordsmanship!”

With a cold snort, a sword light sprung forth. The man who came head-on was immediately cleaved into two.

The other man was the one who had his leg cut off, seeing what happened, he was extremely frightened and immediately tried to flee.

Then again, the sword light emerged, and that man, too, was executed on the spot.

“My luck doesn’t seem too bad, to encounter such treasures.”

Jiang Xiaobai promptly put the Illusory Spirit Fruits into his bag.

But just as he was putting the fruit into his bag, over a dozen people suddenly appeared, all of them emanating the aura of the mid-stage of crossing tribulations.

“Impudent, daring to kill our people from the Heavenly Sword Sect, you bring about your own demise!”

The man in the lead shouted angrily, directly launching his sword attacking Jiang Xiaobai.
