Chapter 761: Chapter 763: Departure and Pursuit, Abandoned Secret Realm

```

"Shit, run!!!" Qin Muye used the Mirror Demon’s Mirror Golden Light as a booster, speeding like a madman with a dusty and disheveled Fan Hua by his side, who was flying with his sword, naturally using the Wisdom Sword.

It must be said, this thing really was versatile, it seemed that apart from the Innate Spiritual Beast Technique of Emotional Cutting, it possessed numerous other Spiritual Beast Techniques. Otherwise, how could it materialize, since it was originally formless and substance-less, only attacking the soul and not the body. Now that it could carry Fan Hua on the run, it certainly had to be aided by other Spiritual Beast Techniques.

"Daoist, your Heavenly Mechanism Calculation isn’t accurate, how did we get ambushed?" Fan Hua was also helpless.

He had planned to leave the city with Qin Muye to find a Secret Realm for training, hoping to discover some resources to enhance his spiritual beast. Unexpectedly, they hadn’t even left the city when they were targeted by the Mu Family’s people.

They came straight at them, surrounded from left and right, forcing the two of them to flee.

Qin Muye’s current use of the Mirror Demon’s Mirror Golden Light as a booster was fine, but if he actually had to use it in combat, it was genuinely lacking.

As for Fan Hua’s Wisdom Sword, despite the name including the word "sword," it was actually a top-notch auxiliary spiritual beast. It wasn’t great in combat, its real purpose was to anchor the soul, providing support for other spiritual beasts and Spirit Masters.

So, both of them were hacks, not the main character. How could they fight against those towering figures on the other side?

"If all my predictions were accurate, do you have any idea how I got dragged into this by you?" Qin Muye said somewhat speechlessly.

"..." Fan Hua thought Qin Muye’s words made a lot of sense. If his predictions were always accurate, how could they have ended up in this mess?

"So, where should we go now? How do we shake them off?" Fan Hua was at a loss; after all, he used to just pick a direction and run like mad when he was being chased.

Now it was different with Qin Muye here, it was better to let him decide, especially since he was adept at Heavenly Mechanism Calculation, maybe he could find a way out.

"It’s all the same where we go, as for shaking them off..." Qin Muye maneuvered the Mirror Golden Light to dodge a fireball before continuing, "Do you think we can really shake them off with them biting our heels so closely?"

"How about this, let’s turn around and kill them, and everything will be solved."

Qin Muye indicated that he couldn’t solve the problem, but he could try to deal with the people causing the problem.

"Daoist, is there a possibility that the two of us together can’t beat that group after us?" Fan Hua pointed out the obvious issue that if they could deal with the pursuers, there wouldn’t be any chase to begin with.

"Ssss~ You’ve grown some brains today, kid, thinking of such a profound question." Qin Muye said, drawing in a cold breath.

"Cough, Daoist, stop the poor jokes, do you have a plan?" Fan Hua asked.

"Nope, if I had one, I would have run already." Qin Muye glanced back at their pursuers, feeling like something was a bit off.

It seemed as though they were deliberately pursuing them, not with the intention of really killing them. If they really wanted to capture Fan Hua, with the power of the Mu Family, how could they just send these few people? This was, after all, a family disgrace.

During the previous rebellion against the Spirit Emperor, the Mu Family wasn’t involved, which is why after just a major setback, they weren’t eradicated.

However, even after such a setback, the Mu Family was still a major household, so it didn’t make sense to send these worthless chaps. Fan Hua had already escaped several times, which made Qin Muye feel like the pursuit was intentional, not genuinely to capture Fan Hua.

Another thing was that he remembered the Mu Family no longer had a Daluo Golden Immortal. The reason for their major setback was that the Mu Family’s Daluo Golden Immortal had been put to death by the Spirit Emperor under a pretext, and not just the Mu Family, but other great dynasties suffered the same fate, with the highest level now being only that of a Golden Immortal.

As for the other Daluo Golden Immortals, it seemed they were mostly dead, all at the hands of the Spirit Emperor. To maintain the stability and reform of the Great Spirit Dynasty, his methods were exceptionally ruthless.

So now, in the entire Spirit Realm, aside from the Spirit Emperor and his spiritual beasts, the high-end combat power had dropped to the level of rank 7 Golden Immortals.

From the Spirit Emperor’s perspective, this wasn’t a big issue. It weakened the forces, balanced the power, and even freed up a huge amount of resources, allowing for better control of the overall situation.

```

But from the perspective of the entire Spirit Realm, it wasn’t a good thing as they had weakened their own living power.

For Qin Muye, though, it was actually a good thing. Without the Level 8 Daluo Golden Immortals, it would be easier for Qin Muye to make his move, and the risk of exposure had decreased slightly.

However, even a Level 7 Golden Immortal was enough to suppress a great family, after all, everyone was on an equal footing. The Spirit Emperor’s level was too high, and since he had obtained what they wanted, everything naturally remained as before.

But those great families were actually suppressing their anger, trying to find a way to help their family’s Golden Immortals break through to Daluo Golden Immortal. However, it was very difficult. If it were possible, they would have already made the breakthrough. If they couldn’t make it now, there was no way to do so in a short time.

"Doesn’t that mean we’ll never be able to get rid of them? We..." Fan Hua said, slightly anxious.

"Relax, after all, death awaits us all. Being scared of death and embracing it happily are two different ways of dying, we might as well be happy," Qin Muye said, completely unfazed.

Fan Hua felt somewhat reassured by these words. He felt if Qin Muye could really take life and death so lightly, he wouldn’t have sent him to deal with the troubles of the Mu Family. The reason for such contradictions was definitely because Qin Muye had a well-thought-out plan; otherwise, he would have made a move already.

The two of them left the city anyway. The Mu Family’s people inside the city didn’t dare to act too rashly. This wasn’t their turf, and they had just been dealt with not long ago. The principle of action was naturally to be as low-key as possible—being too high-profile might risk another purging by the Spirit Emperor.

The Mu Family had indeed suffered major injuries, but the resources and foundations of a great family remained. If they didn’t make waves, the Spirit Emperor would turn a blind eye, but if they went too far, the iron-fisted Spirit Emperor wouldn’t mind seizing another batch of resources.

"Daoist, ahead lies a Secret Realm!!!" Fan Hua said with excitement in his tone; he hadn’t expected their luck to be so good.

"Mhm, yeah, why else would we run this way? Once we enter the Secret Realm, we can beat a hasty retreat and might even collect some resources along the way," Qin Muye said, following Fan Hua’s remark, speaking directly.

Secret Realms are worlds colonized by Spirit Masters, but unlike the Xuanzhen Realm, these worlds have been deeply embedded within the Spirit Realm itself, becoming a part of it and absorbed as nourishment.

The Xuanzhen Realm and the Spirit Realm were originally part of the same world, but for unknown reasons, they were divided. To put it differently, the two worlds together would constitute the original Level 9 world. Although both worlds are Level 9 now, it is speculated they haven’t returned to their peak.

Compared to the relatively intact Xuanzhen Realm, the Spirit Realm was likely the smaller part when they were split, which is why it didn’t start as fortuitously as the Xuanzhen Realm. This is probably the reason the Immortal System transformed into the Spirit Control System.

And these Secret Realms are measures taken by the Spirit Realm in the past to restore themselves, becoming an annex to better facilitate absorption.

Which means, the Secret Realms of the Spirit Realm are actually inferior to the colonial worlds of the Xuanzhen Realm.

After all, one is a slave, and the other is a blood bank, and there is a vast difference in completeness between the two.

The Secret Realm not far from Qin Muye and Fan Hua was naturally one without a master. Secret Realms with masters are either controlled by families or by the Great Spirit Dynasty.

It was an abandoned Secret Realm, likely to have been hollowed out in value, which is why it was abandoned.

But that didn’t mean there was nothing left—occasionally lone practitioners or descendants of family Spirit Masters would enter, and sometimes they could still find something.

After all, it was formed by a world; even a broken ship has three pounds of nails—unique Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures or Spiritual Beasts would sometimes form, it just required more time, ranging from decades to thousands of years.

But for Qin Muye and Fan Hua, this wasn’t a problem. Both of them had the Main Character Aura, ensuring they would find treasures upon entering.

"It’s just that the Secret Realm seems to have been abandoned for quite some time. Wouldn’t it be dangerous to go in?" Fan Hua hesitated.

"It shouldn’t be. Even if there is danger, we can just loop around and run," Qin Muye said indifferently.

An abandoned Secret Realm might become the dwelling of some powerful Spiritual Beasts or lone Spirit Masters, after all, such a place is much more upscale than ordinary houses and even has slightly richer Spiritual Energy than the outside world.

Even if it’s an abandoned Secret Realm, it’s not easy to come across—not everyone is Qin Muye.
