Chapter 830 830: Incoming Danger!

"Miss Lan, should we check the location where the pillar of the light emitted?" One of the exploration team members asked Instructor Mei Lan.

On her way to explore this secret realm, Instructor Mei Lan b.u.mped into the exploration team members several times, so she brought them with her.

The strength of the exploration team members was pretty uneven. Some of them were weak, but they specialized in formation breaking, treasure tracking, treasure appraising, defusing traps, and so on, while the others might be very powerful since they specialized in guarding and fighting.

Instructor Mei Lan was currently traveling with seven exploration team members, and most of them had weak battle prowess.

Instructor Mei Lan nodded her head and replied: "The other exploration team members should have seen that pillar of light too, and they would probably be heading toward that light. If we head there, there is a high chance we will meet with the other exploration team members in that place."

Instructor Mei Lan hesitated for a while before adding: "I have a bad feeling about this Secret Realm, so it would be better for us to gather with all of the exploration team members as soon as possible."

The seven exploration team members swallowed their saliva in nervousness when they heard Instructor Mei Lan"s solemn words.

Even if all of the exploration team members managed to gather, they might not be strong enough to face the danger in this Secret Realm.

What they really hoped was to reunite with Chief Zhu Jun and his daughter, Zhu Zhenhua, as soon as possible since they knew how powerful these two were.

Instructor Mei Lan immediately led the seven exploration team members toward the direction of the pillar of light.

Teacher Li Wei was pretty much in the same situation as Instructor Mei Lan, and he also quickly led the exploration team members who were with him toward the direction of the pillar of light.

That pillar of light really acted as a light beacon, almost all of the scattered exploration team members thought the same as Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei, then they also headed to that location.

.....

Meanwhile, the current situation of Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua was actually not as good as the other people thought.

Drip~! Drip~! Drip~! Drip~!

Fresh blood kept dripping from Chief Zhu Jun"s missing right arm.

But Zhu Zhenhua did not seem to care about it when she kept dragging Chief Zhu Jun away as if they were trying to run from something terrifying.

Chief Zhu Jun slowly opened his eyes and tried to say something to Zhu Zhenhua.

"Cough, cough, cough... PUFFF~!" However, Chief Zhu Jun coughed out several mouthfuls of blood and sprayed another mouthful of blood again and again.

"Dad! Are you all right?" Zhu Zhenhua stopped dragging Chief Zhu Jun and laid him under the huge tree before she asked Chief Zhu Jun with a tone filled with worry.

"It is okay... Cough, cough... I am all right... We do not need to run away anymore... Let"s just take a rest here..." Chief Zhu Jun spoke with great difficulty as his pale face turned even paler.

"But dad... What if that monster caught up with us?" Zhu Zhenhua worriedly asked.

Chief Zhu Jun shook his head and replied: "Do not worry... If that monster wanted to chase us down, it should have already caught up with us long ago. That monster should have been attracted by that pillar of light and headed there instead."

Zhu Zhenhua finally sighed in relief and sat weakly beside Chief Zhu Jun.

"What kind of monster is that? How could it be so horrible and powerful?" Zhu Zhenhua muttered in a frightened tone as her slim body shuddered slightly in fear.

Chief Zhu Jun shook his head. He did not reply and immediately circulated his vitality energy to recover his wounds.

After the front part of the s.p.a.ce tunnel crumbled apart under the attack of an unknown creature, Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua immediately used their strength to protect the back part of the s.p.a.ce tunnel, so the others would remain safe, and all of them would not get trapped forever in this secret realm.

As a result, the others were thrown out from the s.p.a.ce tunnel, and they got randomly teleported around the Secret Realm, but Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua had to fight head-on against the unknown creature to protect the s.p.a.ce tunnel"s remains as their only way to exit from the secret realm.

Who knew that the unknown creature was actually extremely powerful, and even its abilities were very strange?!

Even though Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua teamed up to fight against the unknown creature, both of them were still beaten so badly that they had to escape to save their own lives in the end.

Both Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua got seriously injured.

Chief Zhu Jun"s right arm was even torn off by that strange creature, and the strange creature delightfully ate Chief Zhu Jun"s right arm in one gulp.

Fortunately for Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua, the strange creature was attracted by the pillar of light when it was chasing after them.

The strange creature immediately abandoned Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua like a boring toy and flashed toward the pillar of light to find a new interesting toy.

Chief Chu Jun suddenly opened his eyes again and shouted in panic: "Not good~! We have to warn the others to never head toward that pillar of light or they will... Cough, cough, cough... PUFF~!"

Zhu Zhenhua hastily took out her communication talisman, but the communication talisman could not be used in this secret realm.

Then she tried to use the other gadgets to communicate with the exploration team one by one, but all of them failed to connect.

Zhu Zhenhua gnashed her teeth and stood up, but she staggered and fell down instead.

Zhu Zhenhua wanted to quickly head toward the pillar of light and warn the others, but her current situation clearly did not allow her to do so, because she was not only seriously injured but also most of her energy was exhausted.

Chief Chu Jun sighed as he patted Zhu Zhenhua"s shoulder while saying in a comforting tone: "We have already done our best to protect all of them. The rest could only depend on their luck."

Zhu Zhenhua closed her eyes unwillingly, but she could only nod her head in agreement.

Both Chief Chu Jun andZhu Zhenhua decided to focus on recovering their exhausted vitality energy and injuries as soon as possible.

It was truly ironic that Tang Li Xue"s undeliberate action which caused the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] to shoot [Stellar Explosion Beam] at her ended up saving Chief Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua"s lives instead.

Of course, no one noticed that yet until this point, not even Tang Li Xue herself or Zhu Jun and Zhu Zhenhua.

.....

Meanwhile, at the location of the pillar of light...

More than half of the Medicine Garden Palace had collapsed into ruins.

The entire roof and the walls on the second floor were blown to pieces, while many parts of the floor had fallen apart.

A lot of debris fell onto the first floor. Some parts of the first floor even collapsed and fell onto the bas.e.m.e.nt.

BAAAANG~!

Tang Li Xue crawled out from under the debris in the bas.e.m.e.nt and jumped onto the first floor.

"PTUUUII~!" Tang Li Xue spotted out all of the dirt that entered her mouth, then she shook her furry body to shake away all of the dirt and dust on her body.

When Tang Li Xue saw the ruined Medicine Palace Garden, she immediately shuddered in fright.

She quickly activated her [Ethereal Form] and [Art of Concealment], then her silver furry body turned invisible and undetectable.

Tang Li Xue hastily used her [Moonlight Flickering Flash Step] to get away from the ruined Medicine Palace Garden as quickly as possible.

There was no guarantee that the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree] would not shoot its [Stellar Explosion Beam] for the second time toward her after all.

When Tang Li Xue almost went out of the ruined Medicine Palace Garden, she actually saw a familiar sword among the debris.

"That is... Heaven Edge Sword?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in surprise.

But different from its previous imposing and cool-looking appearance, the current Heaven Edge Sword looked so shabby and filled with countless cracks as if it would shatter to pieces in one touch.

At first, Tang Li Xue wanted to just ignore it since the current Heaven Edge Sword looked like nothing more than a useless broken weapon, but she noticed there was black energy mixed with the Heaven Edge Sword.

Tang Li Xue frowned deeply and hesitated for a while before she decided to step closer and observe it carefully.

"This familiar black energy... Don"t tell me this black energy is from that previous scary woman in the red dress?! But why the heck is it mixed with the Heaven Edge Sword right now?!" Tang Li Xue muttered in suspicion.

Then Tang Li Xue immediately realized that both the old man and the scary woman should be blasted to nothingness by the [Star Gathering Bodhi Tree]"s previous light beam attack.

However, the old man"s Heaven Edge Sword and the scary woman"s black energy still managed to survive and somehow mixed into one.

Tang Li Xue squinted her topaz blue eyes while muttering in a curious tone: "This is really interesting..."

Under Tang Li Xue"s observation, she managed to find out that the black energy was slowly getting stronger, and the cracks on the Heaven Edge Sword were also slowly healed.

"Oh, wow... Don"t tell me that old man and scary woman can still resurrect themselves?!" Tang Li Xue exclaimed in astonishment.
