Chapter 205: Entering the Divine Secret Realm!

Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Entering the Divine Secret Realm!


Divine Secret Realm entrance.


The golden pillar of light gradually gathered, finally transforming into a brilliant golden gateway suspended in the sky.


The second Divine Secret Realm officially opens!


At the forefront stood a Demon Race commander, a half-step Totem Level Demon King, unleashing mighty Spiritual Power that swept across a radius of a hundred miles like a tidal wave.


After confirming there were no abnormalities, a hint of satisfaction flashed in his crimson eyes.


"Demon Race members participating in this Divine Secret Realm, begin the operation!"


With his order, several hundred elite, carefully selected Demon Race members formed up.


These were all Peak Commander Level powerhouses, each exuding heart-palpitating Demonic Qi.


"Remember your mission!" His voice thundered, "Seize the Divine Pattern at all costs!"


"Roar—!"


The Demon warriors let out earth-shaking roars, transforming into hundreds of black streaks of light as they charged toward the golden gateway.


They understood well that, by forcefully entering the Secret Realm, the Demon Race would surely provoke repulsion...


But for the future of the Demon Race, this risk was nothing.


However, just as the first wave of Demon Race approached the gateway—


"Buzz!"


A faint ripple appeared somewhere in the Void.


Fei Yue, Gu Xing, and Lilith hid within, their bodies shrouded by a veil-thin Void Barrier.


Fei Yue’s little face was a bit pale, her forehead dotted with fine sweat.


To simultaneously evade the perception of ten half-step Totem-level Demon Race members was an immense challenge for her.


"The situation has changed."


Gu Xing lowered his voice, quickly exchanging words with Lilith.


The original plan was to use Void Travel to enter the Secret Realm directly, but upon approaching the gateway they discovered...


The space there was utter chaos—even with the Divine Pattern’s enhancement, Fei Yue struggled to pass through.


Gu Xing’s brows were tightly knit, his eyes grim as he surveyed the dense Demon Race army below.


Over a hundred Monarch Level Demon Race, ten half-step Totem Level powerhouses—the pressure alone was suffocating.


"I have to think of a way..."


He looked at Lilith at his side; the Blood Ancestor’s expression also grew grave.


Though, with her Soul Devouring Talent, she could reach half-step Totem Level strength,


to withstand the attacks of so many Demon Race...


That was simply impossible!


After some thought, Gu Xing’s gaze shifted again to Fei Yue:


"Fei Yue, what’s the closest you can get to the Secret Realm entrance recently?"


Fei Yue closed her eyes to focus, carefully perceiving the spatial fluctuations around them. After a moment, she opened her eyes and spoke softly—


"Master, with my current ability, I can only get within five hundred meters of the entrance at most."


Hearing this, Gu Xing’s eyes grew a bit more troubled.


Five hundred meters!


Neither near nor far.


If Fei Yue were alone, with her Instant Flash ability, she could cross that distance and enter the Secret Realm in the blink of an eye.


But the problem was, this Skill could not bring anyone along.


"Five hundred meters..."


Gu Xing murmured in a low voice, his brow knitting unconsciously.


For any Guardian Beast, five hundred meters was a mere instant.


But in that instant, too many things could go wrong.


As long as a half-step Totem level Demon Race reacted...


All their efforts would be for nothing!


"I can hold them off for an instant."


Lilith suddenly spoke, her crimson eyes flashing with determination.


"Take that chance—enter the Secret Realm immediately."


Gu Xing, hearing this, turned to look at Lilith.


He thought for a moment, then still shook his head:


"No."


He understood the cost of doing so...


Lilith had only just recovered her Monarch Tier Five strength; if she lost another Blood Body, she might drop directly to Commander Level.


After a prolonged silence, Gu Xing finally made a decision:


"Listen—to, as soon as we leave the Void, you two immediately enter the Beast Taming Space."


He was going to have Liu Li take action!


With the Absolute Defense granted by the "Divine Protection" Skill, Liu Li could fully withstand the Demon Race’s first wave of attack.


But every single moment must be precise...


Even a split-second’s delay and they’d have to face the assault of ten half-step Totem level Demon Race.


Lilith opened her mouth to protest, but when she saw the determination in Gu Xing’s eyes, she could only nod gently in the end.


Soon after, Fei Yue led Gu Xing to the safest spot nearest to the Secret Realm entrance.


Next was simply to wait.


Only when the Demon Race was at their most relaxed would their chance of success be highest!


The seconds ticked by. As the last Commander Level Demon Race stepped through the golden gateway, the Demon Race guardians visibly let their guard down.


The ten half-step Totem Level Demon Kings looked around, and after confirming that nothing was amiss within a hundred-mile radius, their taut nerves finally relaxed.


"Looks like the Human Race and those Alien Races have given up on competing for this Divine Pattern."


At this moment, the golden glow at the Secret Realm’s entrance was dimming—signaling that the portal was about to close.


The other nine half-step Totem Level Demon Kings wore confident smiles.


"Now we simply wait for the Divine Secret Realm to open again..."


"The Human Race Divine Pattern will be ours."


Their group’s sole purpose was to seize the Human Race Divine Pattern.


In the Demon Race deployment, every Race’s Divine Pattern had a dedicated squad assigned.


With each Divine Pattern taken, the Demon Abyss Seal would be weakened further!


And as the Demon Abyss Seal weakened...


A Totem Level Demon God would be able to descend to this world!


In the Void.


Gu Xing suddenly turned to Lilith, asking a question that had troubled him for a long time:


"Lilith, you were once at Totem Level. Why don’t you just wipe out the Demon Race in the Alternate Space?"


At his words, Lilith’s brows furrowed. She pondered a moment before replying slowly:


"You should know, there are two ways the Demon Race appear in Alternate Space—one is from the Demon Abyss, the other is through accumulated Demonic Qi!"


Seeing Gu Xing nod, she went on:


"There was once a Totem Level powerhouse who slaughtered Demon Race recklessly and then..."


Her crimson eyes flashed with grave meaning:


"The Demonic Qi from the slain Demon Race actually condensed into a Totem Level Demon God!"


Gu Xing’s pupils shrank.


He’d known Demonic Qi could spawn the Demon Race, but never expected even Totem Level beings could be created this way.


"Besides, Totem Level powerhouses can’t move around freely."


"Just like You must guard the Ghost Race Forbidden Land, otherwise..."


"The Demon Race in the Forbidden Land would break through the seal?"


Gu Xing considered for a moment before finishing her sentence.


"Exactly." Lilith nodded. "However, only some Races have such Forbidden Lands connecting to Otherworlds. For instance, our Blood Race does not."


Learning this, Gu Xing’s eyes widened slightly.


So Totem Level powerhouses had such restraints after all!


No wonder, despite the Demon Race in Alternate Space lacking Totem Level beings, no top expert had ever made a move against them.


However...


Why do only some Races possess channels linking to other worlds?


He pondered deeply, but found no answer.


So he could only bury this puzzle in his heart!


At this moment, the Divine Secret Realm entrance began to contract, the golden light gradually dimming.


Gu Xing’s gaze sharpened.


This was the exact moment he’d been waiting for!


Only now would the Demon Race’s guard be lowest.


Their chance, his and Liu Li’s, of entering the Divine Secret Realm would be highest!


"Prepare to move!"
