Hong Ling lowered his body, rummaged through and through the pile of bones, and finally found a fist sized Orb. He sent his soul power into the Orb, and discovered that the Orb's energy was still intact.

From the looks of it, this inner pellet was at least at the early Second Order, or an even higher quality inner pellet for Demonic Beast. When Hong Ling killed the gigantic bat earlier, he had already obtained a Rank Two inner pellet for Demonic Beast.

Relying on his senses, he quickly rushed towards Lian Chengyue's direction. Currently, there were many strong cultivators rushing in, and Hong Ling had to find the young lady as soon as possible. Only if the two of them work together, would they not be in danger.

Lian Chengyue quickly rushed forward, and behind her, a cultivator that looked like a youth crossed his hands, as he followed behind her slowly. Li Tan was behind the youth, and it was unknown what the youth was talking about, but his eyebrows creased even tighter.

"Such a small woman with Essence Refinement into Qi actually killed Li Yuan and three of my Li Family's late stage Essence Refinement into Qi. Li Tan, do you really think I'm that easy to deceive?" The young man looked at Li Tan, his eyes filled with anger.

"Brother Li Heng, Li Yuan and those three cultivators were not killed by her, but by a cultivator at the late stage of Essence Refinement into Qi. That cultivator is this woman's companion, as long as we capture that woman, we can force him to show himself!" Li Tan stared at Lian Chengyue, his eyes filled with ridicule.

Inside the secret realm, he ran into his brother Li Heng, who was cultivating in the Broken Cloud Sect. Coincidentally, the dead Li Yuan happened to be the younger brother of Li Heng.

The relationship between this person and his younger brother was very good, and Li Yuan's death made Li Heng, who had entered the secret realm, angry. Such a good opportunity to kill, Li Tan would naturally not let it go.

He did not care about Li Yuan's life or death, nor did he care about the other people's life, but Hong Ling's and Lian Chengyue's existence made him feel as if he was holding back on killing them, but unfortunately, he knew that there was nothing he could do.

Cultivators who had comprehended sword intent were so strong that they could not even contend against a puny Perfection of the Essence Refinement into Qi.

However, Li Heng was different. This Heaven's Pride of the Li Family, who had been cultivating in the Broken Cloud Sect for two years, had long since broken through to the early stage of Qi Refinement into Spirit.

Once the cultivators of Qi Refinement into Spirit had the intention to kill the cultivators of Essence Refinement into Qi, Li Tan believed that even if Hong Ling and Lian Chengyue joined hands, they would still find it difficult to resist Li Heng's killing intent.

Lian Chengyue quickly advanced through the Ancient Desolate Sky Tomb, and countless of bone beasts retreated behind her. Most of these bone beasts were first stage, so they did not have any effect on her, but as she continued to go deeper into the secret realm, the strength of the bone beasts became stronger, so much so that they were nearing second stage.

The young girl did not dare to stop. She deeply felt the terror of the young man with his arms crossed behind him.

With her status as a disciple of the Broken Cloud Sect and the cultivators of Qi Refinement into Spirit, Lian Chengyue simply could not defend against her at all. Even if she had comprehended sword intent, she could not withstand a single blow from Li Heng.

If it wasn't for Li Heng who was afraid of her sword intent, she would have been defeated and captured. The only thing she wanted to do was to quickly find Hong Ling, only by the side of the young man would she be able to feel safe, as if that handsome guy in white was her greatest reliance.

"What, little girl, do you really intend to keep running in front of me?" Li Heng opened his arms and a cool breeze slowly surrounded his body. His body flashed as he let out a violent aura.

"Wind Breaking Palm!" A gigantic palm print condensed in the air, containing an extremely berserk wind that blew towards Lian Chengyue.

As Lian Chengyue flew, she quickly turned her head around. The longsword in her hand hummed as she casually swung out a sharp sword beam filled with sword intent.

BOOM! Lian Chengyue's sword beams rapidly shattered under the effect of the green-colored palm imprint. The palm imprint did not stop there and ruthlessly smashed onto her delicate body.

Pu, the young lady spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards quickly like a kite with its string cut. Her mind was in chaos, she stabilized her staggering body, gritted her teeth, and activated the Authentic Qi in her body, flying forward once again.

"Oh? "To think that she would be so tenacious as to be able to run so fast after being hit by my Wind Breaking Palm. This little girl is truly amazing!"

Li Heng retracted his palm, and looked at Lian Chengyue who was walking forward, with a look of admiration in his eyes, he laughed: "Forget it, I am not willing to kill such an outstanding woman, just wait till she is heavily injured, then she will become my woman!"

He was like a crafty and hungry wolf, he stared at Lian Chengyue who was floating ahead with a sinister smile, and licked his lips.

When Li Tan saw Li Heng's sinister look, for some reason, he felt extremely refreshed in his heart. He also drooled at women like Lian Chengyue, but it was a pity that he was too weak to tame a strong horse like Li Heng.

However, now that Li Heng was here, this wasn't a big problem. This person was the same as his brother, Li Yuan; they were both lecherous, but they always hated new things and would abandon women if they got tired of them. If he followed this guy, it wasn't impossible for him to get intimate with her.

The attacks of the cultivators of Qi Refinement into Spirit were simply too strong. Even though she had already reached the level of Perfection of her Essence Refinement into Qi, it was still difficult for her to bridge the gap between them.

If the difference between each of the four great realms of cultivation could be said to be a single level, then the difference between each realm was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Although the early stage of Qi Refinement into Spirit was only one grade higher than the perfect stage of Essence Refinement into Qi, the difference of one realm still existed between them.

Just a moment ago, within his consciousness, Lian Chengyue's aura had abruptly changed. Furthermore, in that instant, the youth sensed an even more tyrannical power rushing into her body, destroying the girl's aura into an incomparably chaotic state.

This was something he could not tolerate. He took out a Rank 2 inner pellet from his spatial ring and held it in his hand, and then, using his Qi, he continuously swallowed the energy from the inner pellet, and forcefully turned it into his own Authentic Qi.

He had originally planned to use this Orb to break through the barrier of the Great Perfection of the Essence Refinement into Qi. However, he couldn't care too much about's current predicament. Without the Orb, he could still hunt Demonic Beast s, and if something really were to happen to Lian Chengyue, Hong Ling would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

Boom!" With the support of the inner core's energy, the youth could finally mobilize the true energy within his body and move forward at full speed.

He did not meet any more Level Two bone beasts along the way, and none of the weaker Level One bone beasts were able to stop him at all. Very quickly, he was already far away, a little faster, a little faster.

Within the secret realm, many bone beasts only saw a swift figure flash past. By the time they could react, that figure had already disappeared from their senses. As the youth continued to absorb the energy from the beast core, his body was also enduring a great tearing pain.

The power of the Orb was extremely berserk to begin with, and after being forcefully absorbed and converted by him, the process of neutralizing it had been completely forgotten. Hong Ling endured the pain as he continued to advance, the wind howling by his ears.

Just as Lian Chengyue was speeding up her escape from Li Heng's attack, she suddenly sensed something and a smile appeared on her face. She forcefully swallowed the salty blood Qi in her throat and endured Li Heng's Wind Breaking Palm as she quickly escaped.

She had already felt it, that familiar aura, it was the consonance that had been growing up together with each other for the past half year. It was also the passion that was deeply branded in her heart after her heart had become palpitating with eagerness. With a tap of the girl's toes, she floated like a butterfly and pounced towards Hong Ling who was rushing over.

He still looked as handsome and handsome as when he first met Lian Chengyue, but his eyes were filled with pain when he looked at Lian Chengyue!

nine swords floated in front of him. The young man's pupils contracted and the swords vibrated and resonated with each other, the sword beams interweaving to form a gigantic barrier and enveloping Lian Chengyue who was behind them. "Weng!"

"Ah Yue, you heal yourself first. Leave the rest to me!" He turned around and smiled gently, causing the entire area in Lian Chengyue's eyes to instantly become bright and warm.

"Mm, be careful!" She nodded obediently, but she was secretly angry with herself for being so weak.

"Li Tan, come out to see me!" Hong Ling looked at the two figures in front of him, the killing intent in his eyes seemed to be real. He had already let go of this fellow's life, but he did not expect that he would actually dare to bring people to harm Lian Chengyue.

"You are that Hong Ling brat?" Li Tan did not move, but Li Heng spoke up.

He might have felt that it was very uncomfortable talking to Hong Ling while standing on the ground, thus, he leaped up and landed on top of a huge Demonic Beast skull, looking down on this white-clothed youth from above, like a king in the mortal world.

Hong Ling acted as if he did not see him, and walked step by step towards Li Tan who was standing at his original spot. In his hand, the hundred refined steel sword was humming, and the Authentic Qi s and soul energy were interweaving into dark-gold colored lightning.

A monstrous sword intent gushed into the youth's sword from his body, causing cracks to appear on the hundred refined steel sword.

Li Tan looked at the white-clothed youth who was slowly walking over, his eyes filled with dread. This youth's aura was evidently much stronger than before.

He and Hong Ling met each other, and in just two short days, the youth's strength seemed to have increased by a lot in the short span of two days. Although it wasn't enough for him to level up, it was enough to make people shiver.

"Kid, I'm talking to you, can't you hear me?" Li Heng stood on top of the thirty feet tall skull as his tone gradually turned ice-cold. No one had ever dared to ignore his existence like this before.
