In the sky, two figures were flying rapidly, trailing two streams of white air as they continued heading north.
"Nine Continents Secret Realm!"
Fang Tangjing directly wrapped his voice with True Yuan, condensing it into a line and transmitting it into Lin Mo's ear.
During such high-speed flight, sound cannot be transmitted; communication can only be done through Divine Thought or True Yuan.
"Nine Continents Secret Realm? What kind of place is it?"
Lin Mo was curious.
"You'll know when we get there. The Vermilion Bird Martial Arts Hall, Green Dragon Martial Arts School, and Qilin Martial Arts School are all in the Nine Continents Secret Realm. However, we need to speed up a bit now, otherwise, we will waste a lot of time."
After saying this, Fang Tangjing suddenly increased his speed by twofold, instantly reaching supersonic speed, breaking through two sound barriers.
Lin Mo blinked.
Fang Tangjing's strength seemed to have surpassed the ordinary Innate level, otherwise it would be impossible to easily break the sound barrier.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo immediately increased his speed to supersonic, roughly 400 meters per second, faster than a regular bullet, as the strong air resistance was separated by True Yuan, forming two white streams wrapping around his body.
With the strength of the Innate Dragon Transformation Realm, flying at supersonic speed is not particularly difficult, but maintaining such speed for a long time imposes a huge load on both True Yuan and the body.
Half an hour later, the speed of both had sharply decreased, stopping above an undulating mountain range.
Looking down, the mountains were undulating, the terrain varied, and the trees reached towards the sky, with several steep peaks piercing the firmament. The towering presence made one feel small.
"Hmm? Is there a spiritual energy fluctuation here?"
Lin Mo keenly detected fluctuations of spiritual energy ahead, and by the frequency and trajectory of these fluctuations, it must be a kind of Array.
"Lin Mo, you must have noticed the difference here, right?"
Fang Tangjing turned his head, smiling slightly.
"Yes, the spiritual energy here is quite dense, and there seems to be an Array!"
Lin Mo nodded.
"Haha, Lin Mo is indeed Lin Mo, seeing through the mysteries at a glance." Fang Tangjing laughed, suddenly taking out a Jade Pendant from his body, and lightly commanded: "Open!"
A kilometer ahead, the air was slightly distorted, resembling a transparent screen.
"Lin Mo, let's go in."
After saying this, Fang Tangjing had already disappeared from his original spot, emitting a bang as he instantly darted into the screen.
Lin Mo immediately followed, and the two passed through the screen, like a curtain of water, taking a glance back, the distorted screen had returned to its original form, still allowing the outside scenery to be visible.
But when Lin Mo saw the scene behind the screen, he couldn't help but gasp.
Four towering verdant peaks stood at the cardinal directions, each mountain at least 3000 meters high, surrounded by ancient forests. From the outside, these scenes were completely invisible.
If Fang Tangjing had not taken out the Jade Token, Lin Mo would have directly flown past these peaks, appearing somewhere else.
"Such a magnificent creation."
Lin Mo clicked his tongue.
Those capable of creating such an Array must be old monsters above the Nascent Soul Stage, and possess a deep understanding of Space Law; otherwise, how could these four towering peaks be hidden within the vast mountains?
Moreover, in the center surrounded by these peaks was a lake, like a bright mirror, occupying two-thirds of the valley area, with azure blue water like a sapphire embedded among the mountains.
"Huh? Such dense spiritual energy, at least dozens of times that outside."
Lin Mo suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
This dense spiritual energy made the vegetation in this Secret Realm more lush, resembling an Immortal Realm.
"Chirp!"
A piercing cry suddenly came, causing the air to tremble like waves.
A giant black eagle swept across the sky, its entire body was covered in black feathers, about ten meters in length, each feather resembling steel forged metal, reflecting metallic luster under the sunlight, giving off a cold aura.
Suddenly, the black eagle swooped towards Lin Mo, the edges of its giant black wings generating whitish high-pressure airflows, these edges capable of easily slicing a car in two.
"Courting death."
Lin Mo's eyes shot out two cold beams, throwing a powerful punch, causing the air to tremble. The black eagle sensed the threat from the punch, desperately trying to make a spiral movement in the air to avoid the punch's Attack; but it was too late, the punch's high-pressure force, like a cannonball, bombarded the black eagle's chest, its supposedly indestructible wings instantly
turned to mush, and the fist power directly punched a hole in the black eagle's body.
The black eagle let out a painful wail, then its body seemed to explode like a bomb, scattering into pieces of flesh and blood.
"Haha, Xiao Mo, very impressive, this is a God Realm-level black-crowned eagle, especially advantageous in the air."
Fang Tangjing said casually, with a flick of his hand, a True Yuan wrapped around a black-glowing item within the flesh, flying into his hand.
"This is the Primordial Qi Stone condensed by the black eagle, beneficial for our Martial Artist's cultivation." Fang Tangjing smiled: "First, let's visit my mountain peak."
After saying this, he transformed into a stream of light, darting towards the southern peak.
Primordial Qi Stones are pure energy structures, like the energy crystals automatically condensed in the demon beasts Lin Mo vanquished in the Ancient Battlefield Ruins.
"The spiritual energy here is truly abundant, even ordinary birds and beasts have evolved into demon beasts due to long-term absorption of spiritual energy."
Lin Mo sighed inwardly and instantly transformed into a stream of light to keep up with Lin Mo.
However, these demon beasts, evolved by absorbing spiritual energy, don't know the Cultivation Method, although possessing some intelligence, they retain the most primitive instinct for Attack; thus, their strength isn't particularly strong. For instance, a Foundation Establishment Stage Little Golden Snake can easily overpower these energy-level demon beasts, the logic is simple: give two people an iron block, the one who cultivates will forge it into an extremely sharp treasure sword, while the one who doesn't cultivates will use the iron block as a weapon, their strength not being on the same Level.
Towering peaks, looming white fog. The two transformed into streams of light swiftly landed on the peak, at which point Lin Mo discovered an ancient-style palace on the peak, exuding an ancient and eternal aura. With modern society's technology and skills, it's impossible to cultivate a palace on a 3000-meter high peak, considering the substantial costs in materials and manpower.
"The spiritual energy here seems even denser."
Lin Mo mused inwardly.
"You should know what these palaces are, right? These are the Ancient Cultivator Ruins I've discovered."
Fang Tangjing turned back, speaking casually.
